Abstract

Due to the unique mechanical and optical characteristics, it is difficult to carry out experimental research and online measurement for large-aperture ICF frequency converters. To analyze and optimize the performance of the frequency converters under complex process loads, we present an integrated optomechanical method that correlates actual process loads with laser critical characteristics. Based on the established optomechanical model, the key factor that induces the loss of harmonic generation efficiency is identified. In addition, the proposed method is conductive to rapid evaluation, prediction, and optimization of comprehensive performance of frequency converters. Thereby, we propose an adaptive frequency conversion system (AFCS). The results indicate that AFCS can not only minimize the phase mismatching of second harmonic generation doubler but also significantly improve the quality of far-field focal spot.
