abstract = {Plasma-facing materials and components in a fusion reactor
are the interface between the plasma and the material part.
The operational conditions in this environment are probably
the most challenging parameters for any material: high power
loads and large particle and neutron fluxes are
simultaneously impinging at their surfaces. To realize
fusion in a tokamak or stellarator reactor, given the proven
geometries and technological solutions, requires an
improvement of the thermo-mechanical capabilities of
currently available materials. In its first part this
article describes the requirements and needs for new,
advanced materials for the plasma-facing components.
Starting points are capabilities and limitations of
tungsten-based alloys and structurally stabilized materials.
Furthermore, material requirements from the fusion-specific
loading scenarios of a divertor in a water-cooled
configuration are described, defining directions for the
material development. Finally, safety requirements for a
fusion reactor with its specific accident scenarios and
their potential environmental impact lead to the definition
of inherently passive materials, avoiding release of
radioactive material through intrinsic material properties.
The second part of this article demonstrates current
material development lines answering the fusion-specific
requirements for high heat flux materials. New composite
materials, in particular fiber-reinforced and laminated
structures, as well as mechanically alloyed tungsten
materials, allow the extension of the thermo-mechanical
operation space towards regions of extreme steady-state and
transient loads. Self-passivating tungsten alloys,
demonstrating favorable tungsten-like plasma-wall
interaction behavior under normal operation conditions, are
an intrinsic solution to otherwise catastrophic consequences
of loss-of-coolant and air ingress events in a fusion
reactor. Permeation barrier layers avoid the escape of
tritium into structural and cooling materials, thereby
minimizing the release of tritium under normal operation
conditions. Finally, solutions for the unique bonding
requirements of dissimilar material used in a fusion reactor
are demonstrated by describing the current status and
prospects of functionally graded materials.},
