Cover Story: Laser-driven ion acceleration is receiving particular attention for its important applications, such as hadron therapy, nuclear fusion, and use in material and nuclear physics. We reviewed our research in regimes dominated by radiation pressure acceleration with high-intensity laser irradiation of various targets relevant to laser centers such as ELI Beamlines. We demonstrated that a corrugation fabricated on the interface of double-layer targets leads to the generation of high-density and high-energy ion beams with low divergence. We proposed improvement of the ion acceleration with the laser pulse shaping via the shutter (a thin foil placed in front of the main target), generating a steep-front pulse with locally increased intensity. The results obtained with our simulations pave the way to building a new generation of laser-driven accelerators. View this paper
