Abstract
We describe a spatially and temporally chirped beam architecture with potential to create 20 kJ pulses with ~100 fs duration resulting in a 0.2 EW peak-power and focused intensity >1025 W/cm2. The various sub-systems, along with the spectral and spatial gain shaping required to maintain bandwidth during amplification, are presented.
