Abstract
We compared cadmium, copper, gold, and zinc targets to stainless steel for laser-produced plasma pumping the Xe2+ 109 nm laser. Maximum output energies are presented for each material relative to stainless steel. Relative increases probably result from an improved overlap of the laser-produced plasma emission spectrum with the Xe inner shell 4d photoionization cross section
