Rapid growth of large-scale (40–55 cm) KH2PO4 crystals
Natalia Zaitseva,J. J. De Yoreo,Martin R. DeHaven,R.L Vital,K.E Montgomery,M Richardson,L. J. Atherton +6 more
TL;DR: KH2PO4 single crystals up to 45 cm in size have been grown by the rapid growth technique on the point seed in glass crystallizers of 1000 L in volume at growth rates of 10-20 mm/day in both the [0 0 1] and [1 0 0] directions as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
An integrated process model for the growth of oxide crystals by the Czochralski method
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive model for the Czochralski growth of oxide crystals is developed which integrates analyses of global heat transfer, transport phenomena in the crystal and melt, and the interfaces of the growth system.
A historical perspective on fifteen years of laser damage thresholds at LLNL
TL;DR: In this article, a fifteen-year, referenced and documented compilation of more than 15,000 measurements of laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) conducted at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory is presented.
Large-aperture, high-damage-threshold optics for beamlet
J. H. Campbell,L. J. Atherton,J. J. Deyoreo,M. R. Kozlowski,R. T. Maney,R. C. Montesanti,L. M. Sheehan,C. E. Barker +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the properties and characteristics of the large-aperture optics used on Beamlet, a test bed for the proposed NIF laser design and components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elimination of scattering centers from Cr:LiCaAlF6
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the morphology of micron-sized defects present in all samples of the laser crystal Cr3+ : LiCaAlF6 (LiCAF).
