Growth of large KDP and KD*P crystals to support ICF lasers

Review the history of the development of the growth of large crystals of KDP and KD*P over the last 50 years to enable large aperture Pockels cells and frequency conversion optics to support lasers for inertial confinement fusion. Review current state of the art, and what will be required to continue advances.

Abstract

Review the history of the development of the growth of large crystals of KDP and KD*P over the last 50 years to enable large aperture Pockels cells and frequency conversion optics to support lasers for inertial confinement fusion. Review current state of the art, and what will be required to continue advances.
