Current ignition designs require graded doped beryllium or CH capsules. This paper reports on the progress toward fabricating both beryllium and CH capsules that meet the current design criteria for achieving ignition on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) [S. Hann et al., Phys. Plasmas 12, 056316 (2005)]. NIF scale graded copper doped beryllium capsules have been made by sputter coating, while graded germanium doped CH capsules have been made by plasma polymer deposition. The sputtering process used for fabricating graded beryllium shells was produced with a void fraction of ∼5%. Varying the deposition parameters can lead to several different beryllium microstructures, which have been tuned to reduce the void size and fraction to within specifications. In addition, polishing of beryllium-coated shells reduces the outer surface roughness of shells to ignition specifications. Transmission electron microscopy has been used to characterize void fraction and grain structure of beryllium coatings. The plasma ...
