Executive Summary
We are developing plasma-based optics that manipulate and combine laser beams to achieve record levels of energy, power, and intensity. This game-changing technology could enable new regimes of study on the National Ignition Facility and advance U.S. laser capabilities beyond current next-generation designs.
