Abstract(in English) As a first step of a reactor driver development for the inertial fusion energy, we are developing a diode-pumped Nd : glass laser amplifier HALNA 10(High Average-power Laser for Nuclear-fusion Application)which can generate an output of 10 J per pulse at 1053 nm at 10 Hz operation. The water-cooled zig-zag slab laser amplifier was pumped by 803-nm 200kW AlGaAs laser-diode arrays. In a preliminary experiment, an 8.5-J output energy at 0.5 Hz was obtained with 10.9-% optical-optical efficiency. We concluded that HALNA 10 had a potential to confirm our conceptual design for the reactor driver.
