Characterization methods capable of providing critical information across multiple structural length scales are essential in materials exposed to the extreme environments such as anticipated fusion power systems. Complementary techniques capable of uncovering the complicated microstructural irradiation-induced evolution are also important to verify and validate advanced computational models. To date, the primary microstructural tools informing such lower-length scale models have included analytical electron microscopy, positron annihilation spectroscopy, atom probe tomography, and small-angle neutron scattering. In this paper, we discuss the application of state-of-the-art synchrotron-based x-ray characterization methods in fusion material research. Specifically highlighted are opportunities in leveraging synchrotron-based techniques to address fundamental and applied materials science challenges at various length scales and in support of modeling efforts. Furthermore, examples presented in this article include: a combined small angle x-ray scattering and x-ray diffraction study of transmutation-induced precipitation in neutron irradiated tungsten, and the identification of size and structure of nm-scale transmutation precipitates and voids; quantitative characterization of thermodynamically predicted minor precipitate populations in advanced reduced activation ferritic-martensitic steels through high energy x-ray diffraction; and a review of recent synchrotron-based studies dedicated to quantifying the radiation response of fusion relevant materials. The latter includes a pair distribution function analysis investigation of neutron irradiated SiC with insights into the different radiation response of the silicon and carbon sublattices, and a dose dependent decrease in the size of defect free material.
