Popis: | We present a conceptual design for a rep-rate krypton-fluoride (KrF) laser facility that will allow us to develop the technologies required for an inertial fusion energy (IFE) driver. Most of these have been partially developed elsewhere, but they have not been combined in a single integrated test. The facility we are evaluating would be modest in size (about 400 J laser output) and would run at 5 Hz. If this facility was built it would significantly improve our ability to assess the potential of direct drive KrF. |
