Technology Assessment & Commercial Milestones

Co-founded by Nobel laureate Shuji Nakamura, Blue Laser Fusion pursues a diode-pumped laser architecture in the blue/UV range to drive p-¹¹B targets at high repetition rate. Thesis: GaN-based blue diode lasers can reach the wall-plug efficiency NIF cannot, opening a true power-plant path for inertial fusion. Key engineering bottlenecks: 10 Hz target injection and tracking; Driver wall-plug efficiency > 10%. Recent milestones: 2022 — Company founded by Nakamura, Hiroaki Ohta.
