Studies of Techniques for Generation of Vacuum Ultraviolet and Soft X-Ray Laser Radiation.

Abstract

The goal of this program is to develop techniques for the generation of coherent vacuum ultraviolet and soft x-ray radiation. The overall program has two major thrusts. The first is the theoretical and experimental development of a new type of collision process which we feel has particular promise for the development of short wavelength lasers. The second is the extension of our successful nonlinear optical techniques in vapors to shorter wavelengths. In the following sections work under both of these programs will be summarized.
