Pushered single shell (PSS) has emerged as an alternative platform of implosion to ease the stability issue at the ablation front. The design consists of a thin inner Be layer, a 50% Cr:Be plateau region, an S-curve gradient, a low Cr (1.5%) tamper layer, and followed by a pure Be outer layer. General Atomics has developed a way to fabricate the higher-Z Cr to lower-Z Be gradients on glow discharge polymer mandrels with a designed S-shape profile for optimal implosion stability using magnetron sputtering. Microstructure analysis of the gradient coating indicated that at lower Cr concentration a short order or amorphous structure was formed. These fabricated PSS capsules were subsequently built into capsule fill tube assemblies, verified to be leak tight at both ambient and cryogenic conditions, and delivered to Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory for the shots. The capsule thermal stability was demonstrated by invariable Cr profiles before and after pyrolysis. However, cracking at inner Cr layers was observed, which has been attributed to thermal stress.
