The development of the next generation of magnetically confined fusion facilities towards commercial fusion power will depend on an increased understanding of plasma material interactions (PMI). Plasma facing components in future facilities such as a Fusion Nuclear Science Facility (FSNF) or DEMO will experience high heat fluxes, high energy neutron fluence, and helium and hydrogen isotope permeation. This combination of environmental effects is unique to the fusion environment, and research and development in the field of PMI will require integrated facilities that can provide prototypical conditions. Particularly, facilities are required that will simulate conditions in the first wall and divertor regions. One such proposed facility is Materials Plasma Exposure experiment (MPEX). (authors)
