Tóm tắt

Target is one of the essential parts in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiments. To ensure the symmetry and hydrodynamic stability in the implosion, there are stringent specifications for the target. Driven by the need to fabricate the target required by ICF experiments, a series of target fabrication techniques, including capsule fabrication techniques and the techniques of target characterization and assembly, are developed by the Research Center of Laser Fusion (RCLF), China Academy of Engineering Physics (CAEP). The capsule fabrication techniques for preparing polymer shells, glow discharge polymer (GDP) shells and hollow glass micro-sphere (HGM) are studied, and the techniques of target characterization and assembly are also investigated in this paper. Fundamental research about the target fabrication is also done to improve the quality of the target. Based on the development of target fabrication techniques, some kinds of target have been prepared and applied in the ICF experiments.
