  • 冲击波增强点火是对传统冲击点火方案的一种局部优化,其优势在于采用相对较低强度的点火脉冲来降低激光等离子体相互作用不稳定性的风险。本文针对二倍频激光驱动的冲击波增强点火方案进行模拟研究,模拟验证了二倍频驱动的可行性,并给出了内爆增益随不同激光脉冲的变化。结合三倍频驱动的内爆结果,发现波长增大,压缩脉冲时间增大,激光功率冷却时间减小,点火的时间窗口减小。

     

    Shock-augmented ignition (SAI) is a promising optimized scheme recently developed from the shock ignition concept, which may effectively mitigate the laser-plasma interaction (LPI) instabilities by reducing laser power intensity of ignition pulse. In this study, numerical simulations are performed on the SAI scheme driven by second-harmonic (2ω) laser, and the implosion gain window of the SAI scheme is obtained with different compression pulse duration and power dip duration, which is introduced at the end of compression pulse prior to ignition pulse. By incorporating the implosion results obtained under third-harmonic (3ω) laser drive, we investigate the correlation between the implosion gain and power dip duration. The time match between the rebounding shock wave and the ignition shock wave is assessed by analyzing the implosion velocity generated by the compression pulse. Here,the gain as function of shell implosion velocity is analyzed. Our results also reveal that the optimal implosion velocity for SAI is comparable for both 2ω and 3ω driving lasers for the considered ignition pulse. In additional, the effect of wavelength of the driving laser on the ignition time window is discussed. It is indicated that the dip duration will decrease with the increase of wavelength, and this dependence is corroborated by additional simulations using fourth-harmonic (4ω) laser light.
