Abstract
We report on the experimental demonstration of saturated X-ray laser output from collisionally pumped Ni-like Pd, Ag, and Sn at wavelengths of 14.7, 14.0, and 12.0 nm, respectively. Using a 100 ps drive pulse irradiation and a `twin-0.25%' prepulse configuration on flat slab targets, gain-length products >16 were obtained for the three elements. The drive power required for saturation was only 250 GW in a 100 ps pulse (25 J), corresponding to an irradiance of 10 TW/cm 2.
