Abstract

With the upgrade program of SG-II laser facility, 1kJ PW laser system based on its Nd:glass ninth beam has been designed for the scientific research on high energy density physics, ICF, especially the fast ignition. In this paper the design overview is presented. According to the schedule, the installation of optics and mechanics will be finished by the middle of 2009, and the operation will start in half year later.
