摘要: A multi-Petawatt high-energy laser PETAL coupled to the Ligne d'Int?gration Laser (LIL) is under construction in Aquitaine Region France. This Petawatt will be dedicated academic experiments fields of high energy density physics and ultra intensity. Nd?:?glass chain with chirped pulse amplification (CPA technique allows delivery energy. Optical parametric CPA for pre-amplification a new compression scheme implemented. designed deliver 3.6?kJ 500?fs on target corresponding 7.2?PW. The beam linked up 60?kJ?ns UV beams from LIL present scientific research opportunities.
