Over the past two decades, research efforts have shifted towards exploring proton-boron (p-11B) fusion as a potential alternative to traditional deuterium tritium fusion. By focusing on laser boron targets, researchers aim to achieve high yields of alpha particles through aneutronic reactions. The interaction of high-intensity lasers with plasma using target normal sheath acceleration (TNSA) has shown promising results in ion acceleration. Double-layer targets, such as nanostructured coatings, have been developed to enhance ion energy and total charge, improving the efficiency of fusion experiments. Recent experiments using innovative boron foams and advanced targets have reported significant increases in alpha particle yields. Borane targets, particularly octadecaborane, are emerging as key components for boosting the number of p-11B fusion reactions. Scientists are working on fabricating fusion targets based on borane materials to explore their potential in achieving high-performance fusion. The goal is to gather experimental evidence supporting boranes as leading candidates for proton-boron fusion, potentially revolutionizing the field with advancements in laser technology and materials science.
