摘要
We have proposed and designed a laser-diode-pumped laser driver for inertial fusion energy (IFE) which consists of water-cooled zig-zag path Nd:glass slab amplifiers. A driver module was designed under the several operational constraints and has 10 W total output energy at 351 nm and operates at 12 Hz with 10.4% overall efficiency. The laser driver producing 4 MJ blue output for IFE will consist of 400 modules. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
