Notes:
A new type of sub-keV x-ray (0.1–1.2 keV) spectrometer diode array time-resolved transmission grating spectrometer (DATTS) with a fast time response (≤270 ps) has been developed to measure transient soft x-ray spectra from laser-produced plasmas. DATTS, the combination of the transmission grating (TG) and fast biplanar diodes, offers many advantages over the conventional x-ray diagnostics. Among the advantages are flexibility of the energy windows, fast time response, large dynamic range, and the capability of measuring absolute x-ray energy. All of these measurements have not been possible with a single diagnostic. The performance of the DATTS was compared with the data taken with the x-ray diode system, showing excellent agreement in the sub-keV x-ray energy range.
