Results of experimental and numerical researches of problems, connected with creation of compact EUV lasers with a close geometry of electrodischarge systems, with long transporting lines for its energy supply and preliminary gas preionization by running wave of avalanche sliding discharge are reported. Both pumping schemes with collision excitation on example of neon-like ions of argon and collision recombination on example of hydrogen-like ions of nitrogen are considered. The input energy balance and questions of matching between a transport line and a discharge load are studying. Processes, limiting radiative properties of active media in both pumping schemes are discussed.
Overview of development of compact gas-discharge X-ray sources in the “water window” range undergoing at “Burtsev Laboratory” LLC is given. General description of the experimental prototype under development and results of experimental investigations are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
