原子力機構において繰り返し頻度0.1HzのX線レーザーを実現するための励起用レーザーの開発を進めている。ジグザグスラブ型のNd:glass増幅器を採用し、0.1Hzで7J/1.6psのレーザー出力に成功した。このレーザーを用いてX線レーザーの発振試験を行った結果、ニッケル様銀レーザー(波長13.9nm)について飽和増幅を確認した。この時の出力エネルギーは約1$$mu$$J、ビーム発散角は約3mradであった。励起用レーザーの詳細、X線レーザー発振試験の結果、並びに現状について報告する。

We have developed a chirped pulse amplification laser with flash lamp pumped zigzag slab Nd:glass amplifiers for pumping the TCE X-ray lasers at 0.1-Hz repetition rate at the Japan Atomic Energy Agency. The laser provided 7 J/1.6 ps main pulse and 1/8 intensity pre-pulse at 1.2 ns before the main pulse. An energy fluctuation at 0.1-Hz operation was 20% (RMS), which was comparable with our present laser using rod amplifiers. The line focus on the target surface was 20 $$mu$$m in the width and 0.8 cm in the length. By using this laser, gain saturated Ni-like silver laser ($$lambda$$ = 13.9 nm) with energy output of $$>$$1 $$mu$$J was obtained. In this case, the gain coefficient (G) was 41.9 cm$$^{-1}$$ up to the plasma length (L) of 0.39 cm, resulting G $$times$$ L = 16.3. The beam divergence of the Ni-like silver laser was $$sim$$3 mrad. Consequently, the peak spectrum brilliance was estimated to be $$>$$10$$^{27}$$ photons/s/mm$$^{2}$$/mrad2/0.1%BW.
