A small nuclear trigger (the primary) inside the weapon is exploded and used to generate energy, which is used to compress another device (the secondary) inside the weapon. This energy causes the secondary to collapse on itself, initiating a fusion reaction in the fusion fuel (Lithium6 Deuteride) contained in the secondary.
