A fast high-intensity-pulse light source for flash photolysis
1Institut für Strahlenbiologie, Technische Hochschule, Hannover, Germany.
Abstract:
A new pulse light source has been developed for flash photolytic investigations. It consists of a z-pinch operated with a 33-kV, 4.85-kJ condenser bank, and produces light pulses of 0.2 microsec duration with a maximum continuum radiation density exceeding 100 W A(-1) cm(-2) sr(-1). Details of construction and measurement techniques are given, and the possibilities of application of this light source in flash photolysis are discussed.
