  • 激光驱动的电容线圈靶(LDC)是实验室产生百特斯拉量级脉冲强磁场的重要技术方案,在高能量密度物理(HEDP)研究中具有重要应用。但是,在强激光与靶相互作用过程中,由超热电子输运、电荷分离及激光等离子体不稳定性引发的自生磁场会与线圈电流产生的磁场在时间和空间上高度叠加,导致基于磁探针的磁场测量结果存在高估问题。针对这一问题,本文在神光II激光装置上设计并开展了对照实验,在相同激光驱动与诊断条件下分别驱动绝缘靶、简单线圈靶和拐弯线圈靶,通过对比分析磁探针测得的时域磁场信号,分离并定量评估自生磁场对诊断结果的影响。基于此,提出了一种实验可实现的自生磁场扣除方法,实现了对线圈驱动磁场的可靠提取。本文工作为磁化间接驱动点火方案的精密磁场诊断提供了一个新方案。

    Laser-driven capacitor-coil (LDC) targets provide an effective approach for generating pulsed magnetic fields at the hundreds-of-tesla level in laboratory experiments, with broad applications in high-energy-density physics (HEDP). However, during intense laser–target interactions, self-generated magnetic fields arising from hot-electron transport, charge separation, and laser–plasma instabilities can significantly overlap, both temporally and spatially, with the magnetic field produced by the coil current. This overlap leads to systematic overestimation and ambiguity in magnetic-field measurements based on B-dot probes. To address this issue, a series of comparative experiments were designed and performed on the Shenguang-II laser facility. Under identical laser-driving and diagnostic conditions, three types of targets—insulated targets, simple coil targets, and inflected coil targets—were irradiated. By systematically comparing the time-resolved magnetic signals measured at the same probe location, the contribution of self-generated magnetic fields was experimentally separated from the total signal and quantitatively evaluated. Based on this approach, an experimentally implementable subtraction method was proposed to remove the self-generated magnetic-field component without relying on numerical simulations. Furthermore, combined with an axial magnetic-field decay model based on a finite-length solenoid approximation, the coil current and the magnetic field at the coil center were reconstructed. The results show that, after subtracting the self-generated magnetic field, the extracted peak magnetic field reaches several hundred tesla, with a more physically reasonable energy conversion efficiency. The method also reveals distinct temporal evolution features of different coil configurations, providing deeper insight into magnetic-field generation and transport processes. This work establishes a practical and reliable experimental methodology for decoupling overlapping magnetic-field components, significantly improving the accuracy of pulsed magnetic-field diagnostics. It offers a new pathway for precision magnetic-field measurements in magnetized indirect-drive inertial confinement fusion and HEDP studies.
