According to recent research from the United States, "We are developing cryogenic bolometers to measure the total energy of the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) free electron X-ray laser that is currently being built at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. LCLS will produce ultrashort similar to 200 fs X-ray laser pulses with similar to 10(13) photons at 0.8 keV up to similar to 10(12) photons at 8 keV per pulse at a repeat interval as short as 8 Ins, and will be accompanied by a halo of spontaneous undulator radiation."
"Our bolometer consists of a 375 mu m thick Si absorber and a Nd0.67Sr0.33MnO3 sensor operated at its metal-insulator transition. It will ...
