Description
Progress toward demonstrating the scientific feasibility of fusion energy is strongly governed by materials constraints. The evolution of an economically and environmentally acceptable design for power producing fusion reactors will be subject to still further materials constraints. Three critical materials areas are reviewed are: 1) fast neutron damage; 2) tritium breeding; and 3) plasma-materials interactions. Canadian R and D activities in fusion materials are reviewed
