Design

The design team is responsible for developing requirements and concepts for short-pulse generation, chirped-pulse amplification, compression, beam focusing, co-timing, and co-pointing. The design effort also includes multiple focusing geometries, on-target pulse width adjustability, and identifying critical technology needs and commercial solutions.
