Abstract

Abstract

The Nd:YAG laser with a wavelength of 1.064 μm was used to generate plasmas on a high-purity solid ytterbium (₇₀Yb) target in a vacuum chamber. The soft x-ray time- and space-integration spectra from the Yb plasmas were measured in the wavelength range of 1.0–8.5 nm under different power densities. The atomic spectral data of the unresolved transition arrays from highly charged Yb ions were calculated based on Cowan's suite of codes, including configuration interaction. The calculated Gaussian envelope of the emission determined by the weighted spontaneous transition rates was compared with the experimental spectra, and a good agreement between them was obtained. The spatial-temporal evolutions of the plasmas under the experimental conditions are simulated based on the collisional-radiative model, enabling the understanding of the mechanism of the plasma conditions for optimal water window waveband emission output.
