Classification: CPC G  Y | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. An orbital confinement fusion device, comprising:
a high voltage power source;
a cathodic inner electrode electrically coupled to the high voltage power source and defining a longitudinal axis of the device, the inner electrode having an emitter material;
an anodic outer electrode concentric with the longitudinal axis and spaced apart from the cathodic inner electrode to define a chamber therebetween for confining fusion plasma therein, the outer electrode comprising:
a first anode shell and a second anode shell, disposed laterally relative to the longitudinal axis; and
a dielectric insulator disposed between and electrically isolating the first anode shell and the second anode shell; and

a plurality of magnetic field generators disposed in a coaxial arrangement and positioned radially outward from the anodic outer electrode relative to the longitudinal axis, the plurality of magnetic field generators configured to form a magnetic field parallel to the longitudinal axis in the chamber,
wherein the emitter material is configured to inject electrons into the chamber when the cathodic inner electrode is energized by the high voltage power source.
