This paper presents the roadmap of the main materials to be used for ITER and DEMO class
reactors as well as an overview of the most relevant innovations that have been made in
recent years. The main idea in the EUROfusion development program for the FW (first wall)
is the use of low-activation materials. Thus far, several candidates have been proposed:
RAFM and ODS steels, SiC/SiC ceramic composites and vanadium alloys. In turn, the most
relevant diagnostic systems and PFMs (plasma-facing materials) will be described, all …
