Measuring preheat in laser-drive aluminum using velocity interferometer system for any reflector: Experiment

Abstract: In this paper, we systematically study preheating in laser-direct-drive shocks by using a velocity interferometer system for any reflector (VISAR). Using the VISAR, we measured free surface velocity histories of Al samples over time, 10–70 μm thick, driven directly by a laser at different frequencies (2ω, 3ω). Analyzing our experimental results, we concluded that the dominant preheating source was X-ray radiation. We also discussed how preheating affected the material initial density and the measurement of Hug… Show more

“…Shock temperature measurements are among the important means to examine and test the theoretical EOS model under extreme conditions. High-power lasers have been increasingly used as drivers for shock-wave experiments, and can produce extremely high pressures [5][6][7][8][9][10][11] .…”

“…SOP is used for observation of self-emission of the target from which temperature can be extracted, whereas VISAR (660 nm) is applied for simultaneous diagnostics on free surface velocity and optical reflectivity. [24][25][26][27] A schematic illustrating these diagnostics is shown in Fig. 1 The target sample is shown in Fig.…”

“…This preheat can cause instability-like growth of structure at interfaces present in the system, which in turn alters the initial conditions and therefore complicates the analysis of processes that depend upon those initial conditions. Existing studies of preheat typically focus either on quantifying the amount of energy deposited [4][5][6][7] and/or the transport mechanism [3,8] involved. Studies considering the subsequent interface dynamics themselves have either been computational [9][10][11] or have involved complex structure tailored to a specific application [12].…”

“…The phenomenon of pre-heating of components, primarily due to X rays or energetic particles produced by laser/material interactions [1][2][3], has long been a known complication of laser-driven, high-energy-density (HED) systems. This preheat can cause instability-like growth of structure at interfaces present in the system, which in turn alters the initial conditions and therefore complicates the analysis of processes that depend upon those initial conditions.…”
