Abstract

We present a refined measurement of the temporal coherence of the zinc X-ray laser generated at PALS, using a wavefront-division interferometer. The corresponding bandwidth of the lasing line is shown (i) to be broader than those of other types of X-ray lasers, previously characterized with the same instrument, and (ii) is compatible with the amplification of subpicosecond pulses. Similar measurements were also performed for shorter amplification lengths and the small-signal gain was carefully characterized.
