C. Blome et al., Set-up for ultrafast time-resolved X-ray diffraction using a femtosecond laser-plasma keV X-ray source, J PHYS IV, 11(PR2), 2001, pp. 491-494
A short-pulse 4.51 keV Ti K-alpha femtosecond laser-plasma driven hard x-ra
y source has been built and characterized. This source is incorporated into
a set-up for ultrafast time-resolved x-ray diffraction experiments, to stu
dy ultrafast lattice dynamics in laser-excited materials.
