High-density, collisionally pumped plasma-based soft-x-ray lasers have recently delivered
hundreds of femtosecond pulses, breaking the longstanding barrier of one picosecond. To …

Plasma-based seeded soft-x-ray lasers have the potential to generate high energy and
highly coherent short pulse beams. Due to their high density, plasmas created by the …

Plasma-based seeded soft x-ray lasers have the potential to generate a high-energy, highly
coherent, short pulse beam. Owing to their high density, plasmas created by interaction of an …

Experimental results of a two-stage Ni-like Ag soft X-ray laser operated in a seed-amplifier
configuration are presented. Both targets were pumped applying the double-pulse grazing …

A soft x-ray laser from Ni-like Mo, pumped in grazing incidence (GRIP), is analyzed with
regard to high repetition rate operation. Reliable lasing is obtained, but with significant …

In plasma-driven X-ray lasers, it is critical to optimize the duration and time delay between
pump pulses. In this study, we have done parametric simulations in order to systematically …

Extensive modeling of the seeding of plasma-based soft X-ray lasers is reported in this
article. Seminal experiments on amplification in plasmas created from solids have been …

In this paper, it is proposed that the self-filtering unstable resonator (SFUR) is suitable for
soft x-ray lasers which have active medium with a short-gain-lifetime. In order to evaluate the …

Laboratory based X-ray lasers (XRL) exhibit a broad application potential in material
sciences, imaging, spectroscopy and laser plasma diagnostics if two main issues are solved …

Short pulses in the X-ray regime offer unique opportunities for the study of ultrafast
processes in biology, chemistry and physics. The absorption of X-rays can occur with high …
