A picosecond widely tunable deep-ultraviolet laser for angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/22/6/064212

Abstract We develop a picosecond widely tunable laser in a deep-ultraviolet region from 175 nm to 210 nm, generated by two stages of frequency doubling of a 80-MHz mode-locked picosecond Ti:sapphire laser. Aβ-BaB₂O₄ walk-off compensation configuration and a KBe₂BO₃F₂ prism-coupled device are adopted for the generation of second harmonic and fourth harmonics, respectively. The highest power is 3.72 mW at 193 nm, and the fluctuation at 2.85 mW in 130 min is less than ± 2%.

Keywords: tunable laser deep ultraviolet walk-off compensation KBBF crystal
