Historically, the issue with z-pinch has been that the electrodes start to evaporate before you can get to a useful energy density. You need to dump many thousands of amperes through a small area to squeeze the deuterium. Anything that involves kiloamps will be hard on your materials. There is a company that has been working on a similar device for 15 years or so. https://lppfusion.com/ https://lppfusion.com/
