- Description
- Synopsis Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) Program Planar Target Support Contract Solicitation Number: DE-SOL-0002953 April 27, 2011 The Department of Energy (DOE), National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) has an ongoing need for a wide variety of very complex targets for Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) and related High Energy Density Physics (HEDP) experiments. The NNSA program in ICF is an important component of the agency?s Stockpile Stewardship Program. Stockpile Stewardship allows the United States Government to maintain a safe and reliable nuclear arsenal without nuclear testing. ICF/HEDP targets are complex, multi-component, systems often employing specialized materials. Planar (flat) targets for the ICF/HEDP Program will be provided through the planned solicitation described here. Planar targets are typically several mm in length and width, and can have thicknesses ranging from a few to several hundred microns. The surface of the planar target varies according to its specification. Some are flat and smooth, some have ripples, and some have random, but well-quantified, textures. Planar targets can also consist of multiple foils separated by gaps of 5 to 200 microns. Planar targets can be made from a single material, a mixed material, or composites of different materials. Planar targets can be made from plastics, metals, alloys, low density foams, and/or cryogenically cooled hydrogen and/or deuterium. Most targets are custom built to precise specifications for dimensions, flatness, shape (including prescribed curvature), thickness, and uniformity. In some cases the impurities and/or dopants must be controlled and known to less than a tenth of a percent. See more information about this opportunity on FedConnect.
