摘要：

We report the observation of high-gain lasing in laser-heated exploding-foil Ag targets at pump irradiances greater-than-or-equal-to 6X10(14) W/CM2 . The measured gain coefficients on the dominant Ne-like J = 2 --> 1 transitions are determined to be 9.4+/-1.5 cm-1 for (2P3/2)3P3/2 --> (2P3/2)3s at 9.9365 nm and 6.4(-1.5)+2.0 CM-1 for (2P1/2)3P3/2 --> (2P1/2)3s at 10.0377 nm. These are the highest gain coefficients yet observed to our knowledge for any short-wavelength laser. Gain is observed on three other Ne-like lines including a J = 0 --> 1 transition at 8.1563 nm, the shortest wavelength yet observed to our knowledge for a Ne-like x-ray laser.
