Abstract

The spatial coherence of a neon-like selenium x-ray laser operating at 206 and 210Å has been measured using a technique based on partially coherent xray diffraction. The time integrated spatial coherence of the selenium x-ray laser was determined to be equivalent to that of a quasi-monochromatic spatially incoherent disk source whose diameter is comparable to the line focus of the visible light laser pumping the x-ray laser. The spatial coherence was improved by narrowing the line focus width.
