Solid-state disk amplifiers for fusion-laser systems

Solid-state disk amplifiers for fusion-laser systems

We review the design, performance, and operation of large-aperture (10-46 cm) solid-state disk amplifiers for use in laser systems. We present design data, prototype tests, simulations, and projections for conventional cylindrical pump-geometry amplifiers and rectangular pump-geometry disk amplifier...

Zusammenfassung:We review the design, performance, and operation of large-aperture (10-46 cm) solid-state disk amplifiers for use in laser systems. We present design data, prototype tests, simulations, and projections for conventional cylindrical pump-geometry amplifiers and rectangular pump-geometry disk amplifiers. The design of amplifiers for the Nova laser system is discussed.
