RESUMO
An x-ray multilayer mirror on a spherical substrate designed for near-normal incidence with a photon energy of â¼738 eV (F Heα) was procured and tested. This device is intended to be used for in-flight radiography of the shell in inertial confinement fusion experiments with cryogenic targets on the OMEGA laser at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics. Experiments in self-emission on a small (â¼10 J) laser system showed that the reflectivity of the mirror is high enough to record an image at laser energies as low as 0.1 J. A second set of tests in backlighting geometry on a larger (kJ)-scale, short-pulse laser yielded usable radiographs with laser energies as low as 40 J with a spatial resolution of â¼10 µm.
