The need for the qualification of materials to be used in fusion power reactors has been recognized for many years as an important part of the safety assessment and licensing process. The DONES facility (DEMO-Oriented Neutron Source) is being designed to operate an accelerator-based D-Li neutron source of sufficient intensity and irradiation volume to simulate the neutron flux and spectrum of the fusion reactors, thus creating the required conditions for materials testing. One of the main challenges of the DONES design development is reaching the high reliability and availability goals.
