XUUS 5 upconverts ultrafast laser pulses into the Extreme UV (EUV or XUV) 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 50 nm. Moreover, customized systems can generate coherent beams with wavelengths as short as 6 nm. The XUUS 5 employs KMLabs' patented hollow waveguide for the high harmonic up-conversion process.

The award-winning RAEA has been engineered for the most challenging applications rather than the most common, and was specifically designed with the XUUS system in mind for high harmonic generation. From better beam quality and stability, to remote alignment and lower maintenance needs, RAEA serves as a repeatable and reliable source for any of your high harmonic generation needs. In addition, with the advancements we’ve made in both pulse quality and energy, you no longer need to fully commit your amplifier to just high harmonic generation. RAEA provides enough energy to drive a XUUS system and then some, allowing you to expand your lab capability without needing another system.
