Abstract

Summary form only given. Diode-pumped solid-state laser (DPSSL) is one of promising candidates as reactor driver for IFE. We have been developing a 10-J output class of diode-pumped water-cooled Nd:glass zig-zag slab laser amplifier module as a smallest-scale test-version of our conceptually designed 4-MJ DPSSL driver. We will show the experimental confirmation of our conceptual design through the investigation of 10-J/spl times/10-Hz module on the key issues such as small signal gain, energy extraction, stored energy, pumping efficiency, thermal effects, beam quality and heat flow in the system.
