New Ideas For X-Ray Lasers

At the 10th International Conference on X-Ray Lasers in Berlin, a novel design for X-ray lasers was the leading topic of many presentations. The organizers themselves have proposed a new solution to the problem. Scientists world-wide are working on lasers with shorter and shorter wavelengths. The shorter the wavelength applied, the smaller the structures one can see, investigate and produce.
