Characterization of the solid deuterium layer in the inertial confinement fusion cryogenic target without the requirement of cryocooler deactivation

•The influence of the sample vibration on the X-ray phase contrast imaging is quantitatively studied.•An efficient vibration-reduction system with the G-M cryocooler mounted at the horizontal direction is designed and developed for the cryogenic target.•The in-situ X-ray phase contrast imaging of the solidification of the cryogenic D2 layers is performed successively.
