A laser beam's automatic alignment system based on the imaging properties of multiple spatial filters

Large, high-power laser amplifiers use the imaging properties of multiple spatial filters. Spatial filtering has been shown to control instabilities; spatial filters preserve the transverse intensity profile of a high power beam as it propagates long distances through nonlinear elements as well. In this paper, image relaying is presented as a technique for aligning beams onto mm-sized target. On base of summarizing the preceding work on the near-field image relaying of multiple spatial filters, the far-field image relaying is suggested firstly. The application of near-field and far-field image relaying properties of multiple spatial filters in laser beams automatic alignment system is analyzed. A geometrical optics approach and an ABCD ray matrix theory are used throughout. A reasonable and optimized scheme for automatic aligning multipass beam paths is presented. It is demonstrated on the multipass amplifier experimental system of the SG-III prototype.
