Development of a low current
discharge-driven soft x-ray laser |
|
|
 |
|
We report the output characteristics of a saturated capillary
discharge 46.9 nm Ne-like Ar soft x-ray laser obtained with
relatively low main discharge current of less than 20 kA, with
the lowest being 9 kA. The 20 cm long and 3 mm diameter alumina
capillary channel was filled with argon in the region 0.1–0.4
mbar and was driven by a current pulse with a quarter-cycle
duration of about 40 ns. The laser pulse duration generated was
about 1.3 ns, with a gain coefficient of 1.2 cm−1. |
