Abstract :
We developed new techniques for phase control and waveform conservation of a stimulated Brillouin scattering wave. Using these techniques, a laser fusion driver using beam combination, with which the output energy can be unlimitedly scaled up with high repetition rate over 10 Hz, can be achieved.
