In the contribution we investigated fusion yields by changing the target thickness and composition and the laser energy and focal position. The experiment was performed at PALS Laboratory in Prague. Ion yields were measured by a Thomson spectrometer and by SiC detectors placed at suitable distances in TOF configuration. Neutron fluences have been evaluated by neutron bubble dosimeters and CR39 track detectors. The results concerning neutron fluences and fusion process are presented and discussed.
