Opportunity:
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), operated by the Lawrence Livermore National Security (LLNS), LLC under contract no. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is offering the opportunity to enter into a collaboration to further develop and commercialize its Multi-Mosaic Amplifier and Diode Delivery Design for High Energy and High Repetition Rate Lasers.
Background:
Building high energy and high repetition lasers using current state of the art technologies have limitations. They would require large aperture gain medium and optics, which are challenging to manufacture and limit the type of gain medium. With large components, there is limited transverse gain control and low efficiency. Additionally, as with any laser, some of the pump energy is converted to waste heat rather than laser power. The residual heat in an Inertial Fusion Energy (IFE)-class or other high rep-rate/average power laser will significantly deteriorate performance by inducing thermal lensing and stress that eventually causes failure.
There is a need for innovative approaches to overcome these disadvantages with particular focus on effective heat extraction from laser gain medium at high power operations (kJ, up to and beyond 10 Hz rep rate) and controlling parasitic lasing - losses due to traverse amplified spontaneous emission (TASE) of the amplifier, which reduces stored energy after pumping.
Description:
LLNL researchers developed a driver design for IFE-class lasers that allow for simultaneous high energy and high repetition rate operations. The LLNL invention integrates an amplifier head featuring a mosaic architecture with a modified high power diode delivery system that is designed to achieve uniform and geometry-match illumination of the mosaic structured amplifier module.
Advantages/Benefits:
No large optical components and gain media needed for high energy, high repetition laser... - Documents:
