XUV sources

13-nm XUV pulses from a cavity

Nature Photonics volume 7, pages 587–589 (2013)Cite this article

Subjects

Cavity-enhanced high-harmonic generation has been extended to the ∼10 nm wavelength range by using a pierced cavity mirror for outcoupling. This light source has the potential to realize further advances in precision extreme-ultraviolet spectroscopy and attosecond physics.
