Research on XUV Lasers and Applications.

Abstract

The focus of this program was the development of extreme ultraviolet (XUV) sources, and their application to scientific problems. Laser development concentrated on the laboratory-scale Xe Auger laser at 109 nm; we also developed broad bandwidth incoherent sources. The primary application area was the development of high resolution, microscopic imaging techniques. Such techniques should have a number of applications, and be particularly useful in the life sciences. This report presents a summary of the program accomplishments, presentations, and copies of papers published.
