ICF TARGETS AND CHAMBERS

摘要

Embodiments provide devices, systems, and/or methods for directing radiation and/or debris from an inertial confinement fusion ("ICF") target and chambers for capturing energy therefrom. In some embodiments, the radiation spectrum of an ICF target can be altered by enclosing the target in a high-opacity metal case to equilibrate to a black-body distribution. Some embodiments may provide one or more radiation windows in a case of an ICF target to direct output of radiation. A cylindrical ICF reaction chambers is also disclosed that can include neutron moderating/absorbing material, radiation absorbing material, and debris collection material. These chambers can also include various injection ports, nozzles, beam ports, sacrificial layers, absorbers, coolant systems, etc.
