If inertial confinement fusion can be demonstrated at reasonable levels of driver power and energy, development of targets for a host of inertial fusion applications will be necessary. Engineering aspects and design issues of a facility dedicated to this purpose, a Target Development Facility (TDF) using light ion beams as the driver, have been explored in a preliminary conceptual design. In this paper, the nature of the facility and results of the preliminary design are discussed.
