Abstract

Amplification of short-wavelength radiation is advantageously done across a plasma medium. The latter can be produced either using a powerful pump laser or by means of a capillary discharge. The main advantages of this scheme are the ultra-narrow linewidth (Q ≈ 10,000), the full temporal coherence, and the compact footprint. These figures-of-merit are complementary to those of short-wavelength free-electron lasers (xFEL). xFEL facilities are currently available in a few sites, due to the remarkable cost of construction and operation. After a general introduction on laboratory-scale short-wavelength lasers, a comparison with state-of-art xFEL will be done.
