摘要
A simple scheme based on the uniform distribution for the placement of numerous laser beams in the context o~ fiber-based laser fusion is proposed. It is theoretically demonstrated that all modes of the geometrical factor can be eliminated if sufflcient laser beams are uniformly distributed on the sphere. In the case of a finite number of laser beams, a quasi-uniform distribution of beams can be achieved based on the equal area subdivision algorithm. Numerical simulations indicate that with the increasing number of laser beams, the order of the dominant geometrical mode increases, and the irradiation nonuniformity decreases accordingly.
