Status of the Aurora laser system: angular-multiplexed multikilojoule krypton fluoride prototype for inertial fusion

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Krypton fluoride (KrF) lasers are promising candidates for inertial confinement fusion (ICF) drivers. The 248-nm KrF wavelength couples efficiently to fusion targets; the KrF medium is scalable to high pulse energy, has high intrinsic efficiency, and the potential for high repetition rate operation.
