Optics Recycle Loop
Join Tayyab Suratwala, Laura Mascio Kegelmeyer, and Wren Carr from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory as they dive into the innovative Optics Recycle Loop. They discuss how 192 powerful lasers at the National Ignition Facility cause damage to delicate optics and the high-tech processes used to repair and reintegrate them. Discover insights on laser damage monitoring, modular systems for easy repair, and the fascinating physics of damage propagation. It’s like a precision pit stop for cutting-edge science!
