Image plate and X-ray streak camera precision coupling technology

A new precision coupling technology of image plate and X-ray streak camera is developed to obtain the images of target in inertial confinement fusion experiments. Combining the characteristics of image plate and X-ray streak camera, one-dimensional dynamic image and two-dimensional static integral image of peripheral area of the cathode slit can be obtained at the same time, with precision coupling of an image plate in front of the slit. The technology can be used in the comparison of two-dimensional static and one-dimensional dynamic images. It can also be used in the precision positioning of image system. With this technology and Kirkpatrick-Baez microscope, implosion streamlines and Rayleigh-Taylor instability images have been acquired on Shenguang-Ⅱ laser facility.
