Measurement of the Spatial Coherence Buildup in a Discharge Pumped Table-Top Soft X-Ray Laser
We have measured the variation of the spatial coherence with plasma column length in a saturated table-top 46.9-nm Ne-like Ar capillary discharge soft x-ray amplifier for lengths up to 16.4 cm. The measurements, which are in good agreement with time dependent wave-optics model computations, provide the first experimental evidence of a monotonic increase of the coherence with length in a soft x-...
متن کاملDemonstration of a 100 Hz repetition rate gain-saturated diode-pumped table-top soft x-ray laser.
We demonstrate the operation of a gain-saturated table-top soft x-ray laser at 100 Hz repetition rate. The laser generates an average power of 0.15 mW at λ=18.9 nm, the highest laser power reported to date from a sub-20-nm wavelength compact source. Picosecond laser pulses of 1.5 μJ energy were produced at λ=18.9 nm by amplification in a Mo plasma created by tailoring the temporal intensity p...

l'he demonstration of large soft x-ray a~nplification in a discharge-created plasma has opened a new patfito the development of compact and practical soft x-ray lasers. We review our progress in the development and study of these ultrashort wavelenglh lams. The field has advanced from the fust observation of large amplificatiod in a discharge-created plasma in Ne-like Ar [J.J. Rocca, V.N. Shlya...
متن کاملDemonstration of an all-diode-pumped soft x-ray laser.
We have demonstrated an 18.9 nm Ni-like molybdenum soft x-ray laser, pumped by a compact all-diode-pumped Yb:YAG laser. The solid-state pump laser produces 8.5 ps pulses with up to 1 J energy at 10 Hz repetition rate. This diode-pumped laser has the potential to greatly increase the repetition rate and the average power of soft x-ray lasers on a significantly smaller footprint.
متن کاملDischarge-pumped soft-x-ray laser in neon-like argon
Starting with the discovery of x-ray lasers in 1984, laser-created plasmas remained for almost a decade, the only medium in which large amplification of soft-x-ray radiation could be obtained. In this paper the recent first demonstration of large soft-x-ray amplification in a discharge-created plasma column, realized utilizing a fast capillary discharge to collisionally excite the 46.9 nm trans...
