Abstract

A new transmission grating spectrograph for soft x-ray measurement in pulsed plasmas was designed and studied. The spectrograph has an adjustment system with three degrees of freedom, together with an electronic-controlled camera. This design makes it easy to align and use for laser-produced plasmas or the plasma focus. The spectrograph provides spatially resolved spectrum in two dimensions and has a wavelength range of 0.3–30 nm. A transmission grating was used to obtain spatially resolved spectra from plasmas produced by laser-irradiated solid target and gas filled plasma focus. Such a spectrograph is suitable for coupling with a soft x-ray streak camera or a soft x-ray charge coupled device detector for time-resolved studies.
