Spectral Beam Combining (SBC) of fiber lasers provides a simple, robust architecture for high brightness power scaling beyond the limit of a single fiber. We review recent progress in power scaling and describe what we believe is the highest power SB

We describe a dual-grating spectral beam combination (SBC) system to combine multiple high-power fiber laser outputs while maintaining near-diffraction-limited beam quality. The two gratings are parallel in a grating rhomb configuration, with input a

Spectrally beam-combined (SBC) laser systems, wherein multiple laser outputs are spectrally multiplexed into a single high-quality beam, are rapidly advancing the power scaling frontier for high-average-power beam-combined fiber lasers with near-perf

We have demonstrated the first stoichiometric Yb/sup 3+/ laser based on Yb/sub 3/A/sub 5/O/sub 12/ (YbAG). The laser operated in pulsed mode with a highest possible duty cycle of 85%. A slope efficiency of 27%, with respect to absorbed energy, was me

Boron carbide (B4C) is examined as a potential fuel container and ablator for implosion capsules on the National Ignition Facility (NIF). A capsule of pure B4C encasing a layer of solid DT implodes stably and ignites with anticipated NIF x-ray drives

We describe a pulsed blue (485 nm) laser source based on frequency quadrupling a pulsed Tm fiber laser. Up to 1.2 W at 485 nm was generated with an M 2 of 1.3. At 10 kHz pulse repetition frequency, the output pulse at 485 nm was 65 ns FWHM resulting

Several low-Z refractory materials are evaluated for use as the NIF first wall in terms of their cost and ability to survive laser light, target emissions and debris, as well as be cleanable and not outgas excessively. Best performers contain B, C, o
