Abstract
X-ray streak camera detectors are important as diagnostics for monitoring fast x-ray processes such as the emission from laser-produced plasmas, and also for obtaining high time-resolution in x-ray studies done using quasi-CW x-ray sources such as synchrotrons. In work in 1990, an x-ray streak camera was demonstrated to have 2 ps time resolution;1 however, in subsequent years, progress in obtaining faster resolution has been slow. Progress has been limited by two factors: the intrinsic time response of the streak camera itself, and the time duration of the x-ray source itself (usually a laser-produced plasma with x-ray pulse duration of ~ 1-2 ps).
