title: Improved resolution of soft x-ray contact images using laser-produced plasmas.
abstract: Soft x-ray contact images have been obtained of diatom skeletons using laser-generated plasmas of low energy (2 J IR). These images have a resolution of less than 60 nm, which is superior to that reported previously for biological specimens, using this technique.
