Overview of the LULI diode-pumped laser chain proposal for HIPER kJ beamlines

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

A major challenge the HiPER project is facing is to derive laser architectures satisfying simultaneously all HiPER requirements; among them, high wall-plug efficiency (∼ 10%) and repetition rate (5 to 10 Hz) are the most challenging constraints. The active mirror Yb:YAG amplifier proposal from LULI is described.
