Recent progress is described in the research and development of an inertial‐electrostatic confinement fusion (IECF) device. Use of a water‐cooling jacket with non‐uniform thickness shows promising success for landmine detection application, such as effective channeling of neutron flux toward the target and a very stable dc yield in excess of 107 D‐D neutrons/sec. Addition of an ion source to the conventional glow‐discharge‐driven IECF enhances the converging deuterium ion energy distribution by allowing a lower operating gas pressure. Improvement in normalized neutron yield, which corresponds to the fusion cross‐section averaged over the device radius, by a factor often has been observed. |
