Possibilities for achieving x-ray lasing action by use of high-order multiphoton processes

Description

We consider some possible mechanisms for producing gain in the 10 nm spectral region. They involve the creation of a population inversion in a confined plasma column by selective excitation of multicharged ions via absorption of many (>10) ultraviolet photons. Specific treatment is made of Kr-like ions pumped by a KrF excimer laser. 27 refs., 5 figs
