Description

The spectral and time characteristics must be improved of X-ray detectors to meet the high demands placed on them in laser plasma experiments. A special optimized Si PIN diode was developed and tested. It exhibits time constants better than 0.5 ns and good spectral responsivity in the entire 200 eV - 10 keV energy range. The results are presented of electron temperature measurements performed in a laser-produced CH plasma by the two-foil absorption technique to demonstrate detector capability. (J.U.)
