Laser-driven inertial confinement fusion (ICF) diagnostics play a crucial role in understanding the complex physical processes governing ICF and enabling ignition. During the ICF process, the interaction between the high-power las
Fast electron generation and transport in high-intensity laser–solid interactions induces X-ray emission and drives ion acceleration. Effective production of these sources hinges on an efficient laser absorption into the fast elec
The immediate priorities for high-power delivery employing solid-core fibers are balancing the nonlinear effect and beam deterioration. Here, the scheme of tapered multimode fiber is experimentally realized. The tapered multimode
Broadband frequency-tripling pulses with high energy are attractive for scientific research, such as inertial confinement fusion, but are difficult to scale up. Third-harmonic generation via nonlinear frequency conversion, however
We demonstrated a high-power, high-energy regenerative amplifier (RA) based on Yb-doped CaGdAlO4 (Yb:CALGO) crystal, which achieves a maximum average power exceeding 50 W at a repetition rate greater than 50 kHz, and a maximum pul
