• Hydrogen in tungsten: Absorption, diffusion, vacancy trapping, and decohesion (2010, background): “Current technology employs W as a thin (1–3 mm) coating on graphite or carbon fiber composite tiles, but future PFCs might be composed simply of bulk W.(2,5) Tungsten retains strength at high temperatures and can sufficiently conduct heat away from the surface, although underlying Cu-based component”
• Power plant conceptual studies in Europe (2007, background): “In the phase 2 of ITER operations, the DEMO relevant plasma scenario should be validated with a full tungsten first wall (the replacement of the complete first wall is currently not foreseen in ITER) [22].”
