Experimental study demonstrates uniform acceleration and suppressed plasma waves in irradiated targets, indicating improved suitability for laser-driven fusion compression.
By converting a coherent wave to a random-phased wave, the intensity profile on a target becomes easily controllable. Planar as well as spherical targets were irradiated for the first time by the random-phased wave. The targets were uniformly accelerated without being affected by the small-scale intensity nonuniformities. The 3/2-harmonic emission shows that the plasma waves at nc4 are only weakly excited in a spherical plasma. Irradiation with short-wavelength, random-phased beams will be suitable for compression.
