The aim of Material Irradiation Facility will be to characterize the effect of neutronic radiation on materials by combining three ion accelerators:
i) one light ion accelerator of the tandem type for irradiating with He, with an energy of 6 MV, one light ion accelerator of the tandem type for irradiating with H (or D), with an energy of 5-6 MV, and
ii) a heavy ion accelerator of the cyclotron type, with k = 110, to implant heavy ions (Fe, W, Si, C) or high energy protons.

Comparative graphic for the ratio appm He/dpa in irradiated Fe for different facilities (particle accelerators, fission facilities and future fussion facilities). The operation area for TechnoFusion is highlighted, showing that a double irradiation with Fe (300 MeV) and He (10 MeV), covers perfectly the opeartion regions for future fusion facilities.
