Temporal and spectral pulse shaping of KrF radiation for ICF applications

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The Mercury laser system at Los Alamos provides a KrF system test bed for the study of a number of ICF-related issues. The front end of this laser system has been configured to deliver a range of shaped pulses with durations from below 200 ps to ~5 ns, as well as to provide a variable-bandwidth capability. Diagnostic stations before and after each of the two present optically- multiplexed e-beam amplifier stages provide the means to make detailed comparison of output pulse shapes and extraction efficiencies with theoretical models.
