ALSYMEX and ITOPP are involved in the Megajoule Laser (LMJ) program, offering innovative solutions and services meeting stringent requirements.
ITOPP provides the switching functions of Megajoule laser energy benches.
ALSYMEX, via its involvement in many subassemblies of laser chains, is one of the CEA's main partners, handling:
- Design, production, clean room assembly and on-site integration of amplifying sections, laser transport lines and certain subassemblies of the frequency conversion system
- Manufacturing of adaptive mirrors and protective panels of the experimental sphere, etc.
ALSYMEX also maintains in operational condition various equipment parts of the laser chains and of the experimental hall, and carries out anti-reflection treatments for all LMJ optics (SOL GEL).
This unique expertise, developed within the context of this key project of the French nuclear simulation program, is also able to respond to the other demands of large high-power laser projects. ALSYMEX is therefore involved in the European ELI project, in particular in the Romanian pillar, being responsible for:
- Design, manufacture and on-site installation of a interaction chamber between high energy electrons and photons to generate gamma rays
- Design, manufacture and on-site installation of key components of 10 PW laser beam transport systems
