Abstract
We developed a laboratory-scale in situ apparatus for soft X-ray absor ption spectroscopy with a time resolution of 10 ns and a space resolut ion of 100 mu m. Utilizing this spectrometer, we have investigated the dynamics of silicon atoms formed by laser ablation in xenon gas. It w as found that 4d-electrons in the xenon atoms are excited through coll ision with electrons in the laser-generated silicon plasma.
