Abstract

This paper reports on way to fabricate a gas-tight targets dedicated for the first stage of Fast Ignition Realization Experiment (FIREX-I) at the Institute of Laser Engineering (ILE), Osaka University. It was found that a Ti;sapphire laser machining can be used to fabricate the target. The performance of the laser machining using a fs Ti;sapphire laser was examined on shell materials. The conditions for accurate machining were determined. Michelson interferometer with two different wavelengths which imitates a white light interferometer is an excellent tool for confirming the gas-tightness of the target after assembly.
