  • Abstract
    A numerical model has been developed to describe various fundamental kinetics of an inner-shell excited Xe Auger laser emitted at 109 nm. We have found that the laser output characteristics strongly depend on the electron deexcitation of the upper laser level. This model also predicts the increase of the laser output energy by controlling a soft X-ray flux spectrum emitted from a laser-produced plasma
