  • Abstract
    Different target materials were investigated to determine which ones are favorable to increasing the theoretical neutron yield using pyroelectric crystal D–D nuclear fusion. Calculations show that deuterated polyethylene (CD2) will potentially yield the highest number of neutrons compared to the other targets investigated. However, deuterated plastic targets have been found to erode over the course of experiments.
