  • The polyimide windows manufactured by LUXEL for the hohlraum’s laser entrance holes are made from polyimide film. According to Dr. Forbes Powell from LUXEL, the polyimide film used in the manufacture of the LEH windows, is spin cast and thermally cured. The curing process is carried out in a vacuum oven with a precisely controlled thermal ramping and soaking periods to insure repeatable tensile strength for the film.
