Magnetic confinement fusion devices such as the TOKAMAK rely on sustaining a high-temperature plasma in close proximity to material surfaces that define and protect the reactor boundary. The interaction between the confined plasma and these plasma-facing materials—commonly referred to as plasma–surface interaction (PSI)—is a central challenge for achieving reliable and long-lived fusion operation. In a tokamak environment, energetic particles, heat fluxes, and radiation from the plasma continuously bombard the first wall and divertor components, leading to complex physical and chemical processes at the interface between plasma and solid surfaces.
Fundamentally, PSI encompasses several coupled mechanisms. Charged particles and neutrals from the edge plasma impact material surfaces, producing processes such as sputtering, reflection, implantation, and defect generation in the near-surface region. These processes modify both the plasma and the material: surface erosion introduces impurities back into the plasma, while implanted hydrogen isotopes accumulate in the material lattice. Such hydrogen isotope retention is particularly important because the fuel of fusion plasmas typically involves deuterium and tritium. Excessive retention can influence fuel inventory, safety considerations, and the overall efficiency of reactor operation.
Surface morphology and material composition evolve dynamically under sustained plasma exposure. Re-deposition of eroded material, formation of nanostructures, and radiation-induced defects can alter the thermal and mechanical properties of plasma-facing components. These changes feed back to the plasma boundary conditions, influencing recycling, edge plasma density, and power exhaust.
Understanding PSI therefore requires an interdisciplinary framework combining plasma physics, surface science, and materials science. Experimental investigations in tokamak devices and dedicated plasma exposure facilities, together with theoretical modeling and simulations, are used to clarify the underlying mechanisms and to guide the development of resilient plasma-facing materials. A fundamental grasp of plasma–surface interaction processes is essential for the design of next-generation fusion reactors and for achieving stable, efficient, and safe fusion energy production. An introductory talk will be presented: I will start from the basic concepts of nuclear fusion and then move forward into the relevant PSI processes. Three major issues toward a commercial TOKAMAK fusion reactor will be discussed taking ITER as an example.
