1.3-mW tunable and narrow-band continuous-wave light source at 191 nm

Opt Express. 2012 Aug 13;20(17):18659-64. doi: 10.1364/OE.20.018659.

Abstract

We report on the realization of a continuous-wave light source based on nonlinear interaction in KBBF at a wavelength of 191 nm. More than 1.3 mW of deep-ultraviolet power was generated in a mechanically robust setup pumped by an amplified grating stabilized diode laser. Mode hop-free tuning over 40 GHz at 191 nm could be demonstrated.
