In order to meet spatial and temporal resolutions of 2 ps and 5 μm, respectively, we have proposed and designed an ultrafast two-dimensional (2D) x-ray imaging technique applying 2D image sampling with an x-ray streak camera. We have demonstrated proprieties of this diagnostics, 2D sampling image x-ray streak camera (2D-SIXS), experimentally using an x-ray pinhole camera as a single-imaging device. This diagnostics will be available for observing more faster and smaller objects (for example, the core plasmas of a hot spark in inertial confinement fusion and the plasmas generated by ultra-short pulse laser) by utilizing an x-ray microscope with a high magnification of 120 as the x-ray imaging device.
