Effect of dual ion beam irradiation (helium and deuterium) on tungsten–tantalum alloys under fusion relevant conditions

The selection of tungsten (W) as a divertor material in ITER is based on its high melting point, low erosion, and strong mechanical properties. However, continued investigation has shown W to undergo severe morphology changes in fusion-like conditions. Recent literature suggests alloying W with othe...
