A ns Nd:YAG pulsed laser has been employed to produce plasma from the interaction with a dense target, generating continuum and UV and soft x-ray emission depending on the laser parameters and target properties. The laser hits solid and gaseous targets producing plasma in high vacuum, which was investigated by employing a silicon carbide detector. The two different interaction mechanisms were studied, as well as their dependence on the atomic number. The photon emission from laser-generated plasma produced by solid targets, such as boron nitride (BN) and other elements (Al, Cu, Sn and Ta) and compounds such as polyethylene, has been compared with that coming from plasma produced by irradiating different gas-puff targets based on N₂ and other gases (Ar, Xe, Kr, SF₆). The experimental results demonstrated that the yields are comparable and, in both cases, increase proportionally to the target atomic number. The obtained results, focusing the attention on the advantages and drawbacks of the employed targets, are presented and discussed.

ns Nd:YAG 脉冲激光已被用于通过与致密目标的相互作用产生等离子体，根据激光参数和目标特性产生连续谱和紫外线以及软 X 射线发射。激光击中固体和气体目标，在高真空中产生等离子体，这是通过使用碳化硅探测器进行研究的。研究了两种不同的相互作用机制，以及它们对原子序数的依赖性。由固体靶材（如氮化硼 (BN) 和其他元素（Al、Cu、Sn 和 Ta）以及聚乙烯等化合物）产生的激光产生等离子体的光子发射与通过辐照不同材料产生的等离子体产生的光子发射进行了比较。基于 N ₂和其他气体（Ar、Xe、Kr、SF ₆）。实验结果表明产率是可比的，并且在两种情况下均与目标原子序数成比例地增加。所获得的结果，重点关注所采用目标的优缺点，进行了介绍和讨论。
