Description
The fusion of light nuclei offers the prospect of highly efficient energy extraction, with no long-term polluting by-products. Alongside the magnetic confinement plasma (ITER), laser-assisted fusion is the subject of research around the world. The lab is exploring new ways to nanotechnologically prepare and laser irradiate the fusion target to increase the efficiency of energy absorption and avoid the development of instabilities during ultrashort pulses.
Main research areas:

  • Nanoplasmonics
  • Nuclear physics
  • Spectroscopy
  • Quantum optics
  • Non-equilibrium plasma fusion

Benefits to be expected from laboratory research:
  • New knowledge in the field of plasmonics and nanotechnology, new techniques for the preparation of suitable targets, development of laser spectroscopy.
  • Experimental understanding of the energy production reactions of nuclear light isotope fusion in a non-equilibrium plasma environment.
  • Developing efficient and clean fusion power generation that can be deployed on a transportable power plant scale.

A hazai kutatók nemzetközi beágyazottságát, kutatás-fejlesztési együttműködéseit nagymértékben elősegíti aktív kapcsolatuk a világ legjelentősebb kutatási infrastruktúráival (KI) és bekapcsolódásuk az ott folyó élvonalbeli kutatásokba. A legkorszerűbb KI-k olyan nagy költségű berendezések, létesítmények vagy adatbankok, amelyek építése, fejlesztése és működtetése meghaladja egy-egy ország gazdasági teljesítőképességét, így nemzetközi együttműködésben valósulnak meg.
