Abstract

A grazing incidence concave toroidal mirror, is used to relay soft X-rays and reduce the debris, generated by a laser-plasma source, to the window of a "wet-cell holder" built for the purposes of soft X-ray contact microscopy of hydrated, living cells. It is shown that algal material remains in a hydrated state during and after the imaging process, however this process is complicated by many problems concerned with the polymers which make up the recording medium.
