Title: MAD-1021 slapper fabrication, LASL P.O. CM8-2909G-1

Abstract

One hundred MAD-1021 slapper test devices were built to fill the reimbursable order CM8-2909G-1 for W.F. Hemsing of Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. Physical vapor deposition (PVD) techniques were successfully used to prepare the slapper foil assemblies. The 0. 381 mm square bridge foils were of aluminium 3 micrometers thick. Copper solder pads of 1.0 to 1.5 micrometer thickness were also applied using PVD techniques. A total of 120 were fabricated and submitted to the fabrication group for assembly. The 100 completed slapper units were fabricated with 0.025 mm thick Kapton flyers. Barrels for these slapper units were 0.38 mm long with a 0.42 mm diameter.
