The petawatt (PW) laser has experienced a rapid development in the past two decades, and
tens of giant facilities have been constructed worldwide. After realizing 10–100 PW, it seems …

The eXawatt Center for Extreme Light Studies project aimed to create a large scientific
infrastructure based on lasers with giant peak power. The project relies on the significant …

Here, we present an overview on the recent progress in the development of the laser-driven
neutron source (LDNS) and nuclear resonance absorption (NRA) imaging at the Institute of …

Neutrons are powerful tools for investigating the structure and properties of materials used in
science and technology. Recently, laser-driven neutron sources (LDNS) have attracted the …

We report on the generation of high energy, high power pulses in a tabletop diode-pumped
Tm: YLF-based laser system, which delivers amplified pulse energies up to 108 J, as well as …

The temperature measurement of material inside of an object is one of the key technologies
for control of dynamical processes. For this purpose, various techniques such as laser …

The novel method of the thermally-induced polarization changes driven power losses
(TIPCL) analysis in the complex laser systems has been developed. The measurement has …

We demonstrated an efficient extreme ultraviolet (EUV) source at a wavelength of 13.5 nm
using spatially separated multiple solid-state-laser pulse irradiation. The maximum …

Highly optically transparent polycrystalline fluorapatite ceramics with hexagonal crystal
structures were fabricated via a liquid-phase synthesis of fluorapatite powder, followed by …

A 253 J with 26 ns at 0.2 Hz laser performance was demonstrated using a LD pumped
cryogenically cooled Yb: YAG ceramics laser amplifier. A high energy storage of 344 J was …
