INTRODUCTION
It is now widely recognized that the intense neutron source based on a nuclear stripping process of 30 % 40 MeV deuterons injected into a flowing Lithium target offers significant advantages for determining the irradiation behavior of various materials[l] of which the first wall of the future fusion reactor will be composed. The construction of the system will be a great challenge to the present day's engineering and technology, although the major component of the system namely D+ accelerator is an extension of well developed accelerator science. Many studies on the conceptual design of the whole assembly, including a deuteron accelerator able to provide an average particle beam current of O.lA, have been carried out, mainly by the LASL group. The plan, however, involves a lot of uncertain and critical factors such as a new buncher-preaccelerator combination known as RFQ which is supposed to provide the small emittance and low loss injection to the Alvarez linac, the Lithium target system which could safely manage beam power levels reaching several MW and the resulted high radioactivity, and soon. Hard efforts in R and D must be made to meet these requirements, by a much more extensive material study in fusion engineering, as well as in modern particle accelerator technologies. Recent progress in fusion material studies in relevant areas includes the treatment and fabrication of the wall surface with techniques such as low-z first wall coating, discharge cleaning of wall and electrode materials based on the knowledge of plasma-wall interaction mainly for the case of hydrogen isotopes impinging on the surface of the ceramics and metals. The data will be also very useful to promote improvements in the operation of the accelerator which must push the technological limit as is the case for FMIT. Re-examination of the FMIT concept from these points of view could provide insights for

achieving good reliability, optimizing the device feasibility and reducing the estimated cost in the project. This paper describes a brief review of the design studies and the component developments in progress at IPP of Nagoya University, with the primary emphasis on accelerator related topics. 2.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
OF ACCELERATOR
DESIGN
The chaise of the main accelerator structure is the Alvarez linac. The key problem in selecting the accelerator system involves the prebuncherpreaccelerator and the ion source sections. After careful checks of the various requirements for these components, a tentative reference design was developed with the features given in Fig. 1 and Table 1, and is apparently very similar to those of FMIT in LASL[l], except for the higher operating frequencies for the linacs. There is a basic problem of how to evaluate the role which the RFQ can take in the concept. A preliminary assumption made is that the RFQ can be evaluated as long as it works as a buncher, supplying a well bunched beam with low emittance to the next Alvarez 1 accelerator section to avoid a large particle loss at the transit due to the mismatch of the emittance-acceptance, which otherwise might cause hazardous, intense radiation. At this point we are close to the design policy taken by LASL, but with less attention to the prescribed output particle energy of RFQ. Choice of the operation frequency is still an open question. Higher frequency operation could be expected to have some advantages such as the smaller structures possible, less difficulties in their construction, lower costs, and more flexible choice of high power rf tubes. Also it will match the requirement of smaller energy gain we assume. The actual configuration of the RFQ will be a product of the compromise among many design elements such as the accelerated beam qualities, the power dissipations and the heat transfer

problem, the machining of the complicated electrodes, the availability of the higher power rf source and finally the cost of the fabrication. A three-dimensional computer code of RFQ is now being developed to calculate self-consistently the beam behavior in the accelerator structure. The beam is radially focused and longitudinally bunched by RFQ electric fields. However, there are defocusing and debunching electric fields due to self and image fields because of nonrelativistic particle velocity and non-neutralizations of the space charge effect. These fields have a significant effect on the well bunched beam in the RFQ. The image fields of the beams were considered only at the top of the RFQ vane. The beam cross section is approximately elliptical and it is expected that the major axis and the minor axis will exchange each other every half cycle.

The main acceleration is performed in Alvarez 2. In the design, we try to arrange the accelerator line up with the higher operating frequency as adopted in PIGMI at LASL[3] and our previous From the viewpoint of lowering linac design[4]. cost, the careful choice of operating frequency is necessary and many factors must be considered, including shielding and building designs. At present, the operating frequency of 500 MHz was chosen for Alvarez 2 because of availability of klystron tubes and reasonable thermal load of 7.4 kW/m2 on the cavity wall.

In this case, because incident deuteron energy is around 50 eV, sputtering yields are negligible under typical operating conditions. Applications of electron bombarding or direct heating in addition to the ion bombarding heating of the cathode at the initial phase of operation were considered in order to achieve easier start up of the ion source and output beam current.

of Cavity Wall Materials
Selection of the cavity wall materials is a key problem for the linac engineering because the wall must withstand a high thermal load and have high electric surface conductivity. Moreover, the wall activation due to irradiation must be small for easy repair and maintenance. From these reasons, among the conventional wall materials, we chose an aluminum alloy with a surface coating of copper. From the point of view of energy conservation, a part of the input energy will go to the particles (beams) but another part of it is imparted to and heats up the walls. The dissipated energy on the walls results in large thermal loading as illustrated in Table 1. X-ray

The particle loading is usually a negligible effect for conventional low duty linacs, but for a continuously operated machine, it cannot be neglected. The most important part of particle loading is activation of the wall materials. If a portion of the accelerated particles are spilled out from orbit, interactions with wall materials will occur. From this standpoint, aluminum as a bulk material is preferable because its induced activity has a rather short life. Also the thickness of copper coating must remain as thin as possible. Surface coating was done by the PVD method and the thickness of copper was 20 % 40pm, which is thick enough compared to the skin depth of copper at 5OOMHz. Skin electrical conductivity measurements were done by means of Q-value estimation. High Q-values above lo4 have been obtained with sufficiently thick coatings as shown in Fig. 4[4]. The diameter and the length of the copper coated test cavity is 295 mm and 200 mm respectively, and is excited in TM010 mode with the frequency of about 780 MHz. Also we must mention that a thin coating does not violate the mechanical tolerances of the accelerator and machining of substrate can keep the mechanical accuracy of the structures. It is very preferable to reduce the fabrication cost. Of course it we adopt copper coated Al for the wall material, vacuum component such as

there are a lot of problems to be solved that are inherent in continuous wave operation with high reliability. As the guideline for this design, we have chosen higher frequency operation of linac over a more conventional value because we feel this direction introduces the advantage of reduction of radial dimensions. The penalty is of course a high thermal load on the wall, but we hope this difficulty will be overcome during a future collaboration with the fusion engineering group.

there are a lot of problems to be solved that are inherent in continuous wave operation with high reliability. As the guideline for this design, we have chosen higher frequency operation of linac over a more conventional value because we feel this direction introduces the advantage of reduction of radial dimensions. The penalty is of course a high thermal load on the wall, but we hope this difficulty will be overcome during a future collaboration with the fusion engineering group.
