Abstract
A 10 x 10 cm2 aperture X-ray preionized discharge-pumped KrF excimer laser has been constructed. A fast water pulse forming line is discharged via a rail-gap switch into the laser chamber. Collimated X-ray preionization ensures a wide and uniform discharge. The laser pulse energy exceeds 4.7 J in a pulse of 28 ns (FWHM). The active beam cross-section obtained to date is approx. 10 x 8 cm2.
