Abstract
The inversion condition for laser-produced plasmas is analysed theoretically for carbon fibre targets in relation to the intrinsic intensity and duration of heating laser pulses. The spatial and temporal dependence of the gain for the 3→2 and 4→3 transitions including radiation trapping effects will be discussed.
