Description
KMLabs is the pioneer in introducing robust, engineered coherent EUV systems to the market. The eXtreme Ultraviolet Ultrafast Source (XUUS5™) is their 5th generation instrument that upconverts ultrafast laser pulses into the Extreme UV (EUV) or soft X-ray regions of the spectrum. Employing HHG processes, the output beam inherits the coherent properties of a driving laser such as the KMLabs RAEA with wavelengths that can be tuned from ~10 to 47 nm. Moreover, customized systems can generate coherent beams with wavelengths as short as 6.5 nm. XUUS5 employs KMLabs’ patented hollow waveguide for the high harmonic up-conversion process.
Features:
- Patented high harmonic conversion in a waveguide for optimum conversion, stability, and robustness.
- EUV flux can exceed > 1×1012 ph/sec, for the most demanding applications
- Ultrastable, 4-axis active stabilization of the beam, generating an EUV beam intensity and wavefront stability comparable to visible-IR lasers
- High average power handling capability driving next generation experiments
- Diagnostic cameras for performance monitoring and alignment control
- Graphical, intuitive software control
- Stable, industrial optical mounting on a temperature-stabilized platform
- A growing family of application-specific beamlines delivering photons tailored to your experiment
- Highly coherent, laser-like EUV (XUV) / SXR
- Custom XUUS systems to generate soft X-rays to wavelengths ~6 nm
- Waveguide design allows efficient use of high-pressure gas with minimum gas usage:1000x less than a gas jet geometry and up to 100x greater efficiency
- XUUS output can be optimized for different applications: ARPES, imaging, transient absorption, MOKE, XMCD
