Description
The impetus to develop efficient and compact lasers covering the X-ray region of the electromagnetic spectrum arises from the many applications that would follow in materials science, non-linear optics, biology, medicine. Interest in the field is growing rapidly for several reasons: at short X-ray wavelengths table-top lasers have been demonstrated; large soft X-ray amplification in a hot dense plasma discharge was achieved in 1995 promising much smaller and simple soft X-ray lasers than previous systems; lasing without inversion in gases has been achieved in 1995, enabling traditional problems of producing UV and X-ray lasers to be side-stepped.
This book will contain the invited and contributed papers to be presented at the 6th International Conference on X-Ray Lasers - this is the primary forum for researchers in the field. The Proceedings will provide not only an overview and progress report but also important reference material on which future research can be built.
