摘要: We describe a laser-plasma soft-x-ray source based on cryogenic-xenon liquid-jet target. The is suitable for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) projection lithography and proximity x-ray (PXL). Absolute calibrated spectra in the 1-2 nm range uncalibrated 9-15 are obtained using free-standing transmission grating CCD-detector.
