In Optic Technologies Enabling Fusion Ignition, a team of veteran optics and laser specialists deliver an expert summary of optic manufacturing technologies, laser-induced optic damage reduction technologies, and optic repair & recycle technologies. The authors explore the fundamental scientific phenomena and how they have driven the development of optic technologies as well as the process of transitioning from scientific discovery to large-scale production.

The book combines examinations of improving overall optic performance, optic survivability, and laser performance. It also covers novel bulk material developments, yield processing improvement methods, novel metrologies, and advancements in increasing laser-induced damage resistance.

Readers will also find:

A thorough introduction to the details of optics recycle loop technologies, including the refurbishment and repair of laser-induced damaged optics
Comprehensive explorations of advancements in optical fabrication and post-processing reducing laser damaging surface precursors
Practical discussions of the fundamental physics of laser-matter interactions related to laser-induced damage
Complete treatments of laser-induced damage data management, the use of online shadow blockers, and novel optics metrologies

Ideal for optical and laser scientists, engineers, and fabricators of optical materials and components, Optic Technologies Enabling Fusion Ignition is also a valuable resource for graduate students interested in optics, as well as high-energy and high-power laser research.
