Abstract

Wavefront distortion induced by structure design must be minished to raise the quality of output beam in ICF facility. The support system of large octagonal Nd:glass in main amplifiers of SG-II is optimized with finite element analysis software ANSYS, and wavefront distortion in aperture of amplifier is calculated with Zernike polynomials fitting in different parameters combination. The transmission wavefront distortion induced by optimal support system is less than tenth wavelength and meets the requirement of system.
