Experiments on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) will require bright, short duration, near-monochromatic x-ray backlighters for radiographic diagnosis of many high-energy density systems. This paper details a vanadium pinhole backlighter producing (1.8±0.5)×10(15) x-ray photons into 4π sr near the vanadium He-like characteristic x-ray energy of 5.18 keV. The x-ray yield was quantified from a set of Ross filters imaged to a calibrated image plate, with the Dante diagnostic used to confirm the quasimonochromatic nature of the spectrum produced. Additionally, an x-ray film image shows a source-limited image resolution of 26 μm from a 20 μm diameter pinhole.
在国家点火装置(NIF)上进行的实验将需要明亮、持续时间短、近单色的X射线背光源,用于对许多高能量密度系统进行射线照相诊断。本文详细介绍了一种钒针孔背光源,它在钒类氦特征X射线能量5.18keV附近向4π立体角发射(1.8±0.5)×10(15)个X射线光子。通过一组成像到校准成像板上的罗斯滤光片对X射线产额进行了量化,并用丹特诊断法来确认所产生光谱的准单色性质。此外,一张X射线胶片图像显示,直径20μm的针孔产生的源受限图像分辨率为26μm。
