Abstract

Detailed modeling results of 100 J class laser systems with respect to the output energy, beam propagation, nonlinear phase accumulation, wavefront aberrations, and adaptive optics performance obtained in MIRÓ and MATLAB codes are presented here. The laser system is based on a cryogenically cooled Yb 3+ ∶YAG multislab amplifier with two identical amplifier heads and operates at 10 Hz repetition rate with an average power above 1 kW.
