在1990年代的后半期，S、LLNL等人将设计并开始建造国家点火设施(NIF)。这种新激光器的功率和尺寸是Nova激光系统的10倍以上，将能够产生世界上第一个受控的聚变点火和燃烧，在聚变能源的道路上完成一个重要的里程碑。为了以最低的成本优化激光系统的性能，我们一直在开展一项活动，以适当地指定将部署在NIF中的7500多个大型光学部件的光学特性。从这项工作中得出的光学规范草案将被提出。将讨论这些规范在语言和内容方面的演变，特别是透射波前(P-V和PSD)、划痕/挖掘、表面粗糙度、气泡和夹杂物规范。
In the second half of the 1990's, LLNL and others will be designing and beginning construction of the National Ignition Facility (NIF). At more than 10 times the power and size of the Nova laser system, this new laser will be capable of producing the worlds first controlled fusion ignition and burn, completing a vital milestone on the path to fusion energy. In order to optimize the performance of the laser system for a minimum cost, we have been conducting a campaign to properly specify the optical properties of the more than 7,500 large optical components to be deployed in the NIF. The draft optics specifications derived from this effort will be presented. The evolution of these specifications, both in language and in content, will be discussed, specifically transmitted wavefront (both P-V and PSD), scratch/dig, surface roughness, bubbles and inclusions specifications.
