X-ray Laser with Enhanced X-ray Gain Through Photodepopulation.
Abstract
The present invention relates to x-ray lasers employing hydrogenic lasing ions of nuclear charge Z, for n=2 to 4 or 6 excitation, and radiating ions of nuclear charge Z/2 for decreasing the n=2 population density of the hydrogenic lasing ions of nuclear charge Z. It is an object of the invention to increase the population inversion and gain to saturation, to improve the overall efficiency, and to increase the plasma size by decreasing the population density N2. Keywords: X-ray laser with enhanced x-ray gain photodepopulation. (emk)
