NUCLEAR FUSION TARGET, NUCLEAR FUSION DEVICE, AND NUCLEAR FUSION METHOD
First Claim
1. A nuclear fusion target for producing a nuclear fusion reaction, comprising:
- a first target layer in a flat plate shape having a first film thickness containing deuterium or tritium; and
a second target layer having a second film thickness thinner than the first film thickness stacked on the first target layer and containing deuterium or tritium.

Abstract
An object is to be capable of inducing a nuclear fusion reaction at a relatively high efficiency and downsize a device. A nuclear fusion device 1 of the present invention includes a nuclear fusion target 7 including a target substrate 7a containing deuterium or tritium and a thin-film layer 7b containing deuterium or tritium stacked on the target substrate 7a, a vacuum container 5 for storing the nuclear fusion target 7, and a laser unit 3 for irradiating two successive first and second pulsed laser lights P1, P2 toward the thin-film layer 7b of the nuclear fusion target 7, and the intensity of the first pulsed laser light P1 is set to a value that is smaller than that of the second pulsed laser light P2 and allows peeling of the thin-film layer 7b from the target substrate 7a.

6. A nuclear fusion method for producing a nuclear fusion reaction comprising the steps of:
-
disposing in a vacuum a nuclear fusion target including a first target layer having a first film thickness containing deuterium or tritium, and a second target layer having a second film thickness thinner than the first film thickness stacked on the first target layer and containing deuterium or tritium; and irradiating laser light including two successive first and second pulsed lights toward the second target layer of the nuclear fusion target, wherein the intensity of the first pulsed light is set to a value that is smaller than that of the second pulsed light and allows peeling of the second target layer from the first target layer.
