In work, the possibilities of using uncooled and cooled optical elements (including laser passive and deformable mirrors) with an increase in the power of laser facilities are analyzed. To increase the permissible light loads acting on the optical elements, the use of highly efficient cooling systems with minichannels (coplanar and multi-tiered), providing a high compactness of the heat exchange surface and the intensification of heat transfer, is considered. The advantages and efficiency of the proposed cooling systems for reducing the displacement of the optical surface of the mirror due to bending are estimated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
