X-Ray Lab
Instead of the Main Amplifier the Pre-Amplifier output beam can also
be directed to an additional experiment place, the so-called X-Ray Lab.
Stretched femtosecond pulses up to 4 Joules can be recompressed in a
separate pulse compressor. This experimental place is currently mainly
in use for the study of X-Ray lasers.
The key values are:
- Maximum output power at target chamber: 10TW
- Repetition rate: determined by Pre-Amplifier

10 TW compressor:
Set-up of the double-pass single 400 mm gold grating compressor with
tuneable pulse duration to sub 300 fs.
|
Compressed pulse focused in air creates play of colors.

|
Target chamber: Vacuum chamber with the set-up to generate seeded soft x-ray
lasers.
|
View into the target chamber during a shot: Frequency doubled green
laser light generating high-order harmonics to seed the soft x-ray laser produced
in the blue laser plasma plume.
