(2007) Operation of a free electron laser from the extreme ultraviolet to the water window. Nature Photonics, 1 . ISSN 1749-4885 Full text available as: AbstractWe report results on the performance of a free electron laser operating at a wavelength of 13.7 nm
where unprecedented peak and average powers for a coherent EUV radiation source have been
measured. In the saturation regime the peak energy approached 170 μJ for individual pulses while
the average energy per pulse reached 70 μJ. The pulse duration was in the region of 10 femtoseconds and peak powers of 10 GW were achieved. At a pulse repetition frequency of 700 pulses per second,
the average EUV power reached 20 mW. The output beam also contained a significant contribution
from odd harmonics of approximately 0.6% and 0.03% for the 3rd (4.6 nm) and the 5th (2.75 nm)
harmonics, respectively. At 2.75 nanometers the 5th harmonic of the radiation reaches deep into
the water window – a wavelength range that is crucially important for the investigation of biological
samples. Download statistics
