摘要
We describe the design and performance details of a high-energy KrF excimer laser, operating at 248 nm, suitable for generating laser-produced plasma x-ray sources for applications such as soft x-ray contact microscopy. The UV pre-ionized, discharge excited laser is relatively simple and inexpensive to construct. Using a plane-plane (i.e. Fabry-Perot) cavity arrangement, an output energy of 2.24 J per pulse has been achieved.
