Title: Absolute wavefront measurements of high-energy laser beams in the Beamlet Demonstration Project for the National Ignition Facility

Conference ·
OSTI ID:67706

The authors measure the absolute wavefront of Beamlet output pulses and actively correct for slowly varying aberrations present when the power amplifiers are not fired. Provision is also made for active precompensation of pump-induced amplifier aberrations.
