Transient behaviors of pulse breaking and recovering in a dispersion-managed mode-locked Yb fiber laser

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2023
Various pulse regimes have been discovered in mode-locked fiber lasers with carefully designed cavity setups. However, the transitions between different types of stable pulse solutions are rarely observed in a laser with the same cavity configuration ...

Analyzing and relieving the thermal issues caused by fabrication details of a deuterium cryogenic target

open access: yesMatter and Radiation at Extremes, 2021
In inertial confinement fusion experiments, fuel quality is determined mainly by the thermal environment of the capsule in the layering procedure. Owing to the absence of a radial thermal gradient, formed deuterium–deuterium (DD) ice shells in the ...

Density-dependent shock Hugoniot of polycrystalline diamond at pressures relevant to ICF

open access: yesMatter and Radiation at Extremes, 2021
In inertial confinement fusion (ICF), polycrystalline diamond—referred to as high density carbon (HDC)—has become a promising ablator candidate. However, with smaller grain size and lower initial density, the equation of state (EOS) for HDC can deviate ...

Active Supercontinuum Injection for Optical Parametric Chirped Pulse Amplification

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2017
The anticipant supercontinuum is a prerequisite for the pump seed generation in an optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA) system. To achieve the anticipant supercontinuum, we develop an active method operated in a two-level control scheme
