Abstract
The characteristics of a femtosecond laser plasma, formed by irradiation of a thin freely suspended carbon film, are investigated numerically. It is shown that the use of thin films can increase considerably the electron temperature of a femtosecond laser plasma and make it possible to generate x-rays of shorter wavelengths. This method can also be used to increase the efficiency of conversion of the energy of laser pulses into the radiation emitted by hydrogen-like carbon ions without a significant increase in the duration of x-ray pulses.
