Number of fusion with carious parameters.

Caption

The corresponding neutron (D-D fusion) flux may reach 1026 cm-2s-1. When the D-T system is considered, the fusion yield flux may reach 1027 cm-2s-1. More than 106 neutron could be generated within a single pulse, if the length of nanowire is increased to 20 μm. Cascade reactions of D-D and D-T also occur within the system.
