Abstract

A short wavelength laser is provided that is driven by conventional-laser pulses. A multiplicity of panels, mounted on substrates, are supported in two separated and alternately staggered facing and parallel arrays disposed along an approximately linear path. When the panels are illuminated by the conventional-laser pulses, single pass EUV or soft x-ray laser pulses are produced.

Short wavelength laser

Patent Hagelstein, P.L.

A method is described for providing an electron collisionally-excited single pass amplified spontaneous emission short wavelength laser gain medium that laser amplifies 3p-3s transition EUV or soft X-ray radiation along an approximately linear path, the method comprising the step of: producing a multiplicity of plasmas arrayed in two separated and alternately staggered parallel arrays disposed along the approximately linear path, with the plasma having an approximately exponential decaying electron density gradient extending perpendicularly inward toward the approximately linear path.
Pulsed gas laser emitting high-power beam of short wavelength

Patent Neracher, A.

A laser is disclosed that is designed to emit a pulsed beam of short wavelength comprised of two bodies of nonconductive material within a cylindrical housing, at least one of these bodies being a flat ceramic disk with a high dielectric constant. A narrow interspace between the two bodies is occupied by two coplanar metal layers with confronting rectilinear edges forming an elongate excitation cavity between them, these layers being galvanically interconnected through an inductance and constituting a pair of capacitors with a common metal layer on the opposite face of the ceramic disk. One of the coplanar layers ismore »« less
Short wavelength free electron laser using low energy electrons

Patent Elias, L.R.; Madey, J.M.J.; Smith, T.I.

A method and apparatus for constructing a continuous wave (CW) free electron laser (FEL) system capable of providing tunable high power laser radiation at short wavelengths using low-energy recirculating DC electron beams. This method replaces the static periodic magnetic field used in conventional FEL systems with an equivalently intense and continuous electromagnetic pump field having spatial periodicity less than 1 cm. The pump field is generated by a low-energy recirculated DC electron beam interacting with a transverse static periodic magnetic field.
Vacuum ultraviolet and x-ray light source and method and short wavelength laser pumped by said light source

Patent Harris, S.E.

A vacuum ultraviolet and x-ray light source based on spontaneous anti-stokes scattering from atomic population stored in a metastable level is described. The source has a maximum brightness, attained as the media approaches two-photon opacity, equal to that of a blackbody at a boltzmann temperature characteristic of the population of the metastable level. The source may have high resolution, picosecond time scale, and on a pulsed basis is brighter than other laboratory vacuum ultraviolet light sources. Short wavelength lasers pumped by said source are also described. The lasing atomic species can be separate from or combined in the same envelopemore »« less
Short wavelength laser

Patent Hagelstein, Peter L. (Livermore, CA)

A short wavelength laser (28) is provided that is driven by conventional-laser pulses (30, 31). A multiplicity of panels (32), mounted on substrates (34), are supported in two separated and alternately staggered facing and parallel arrays disposed along an approximately linear path (42). When the panels (32) are illuminated by the conventional-laser pulses (30, 31), single pass EUV or soft x-ray laser pulses (44, 46) are produced.
