High-flux XUV beamlines enabling photon-hungry imaging and spectroscopy methods

AFS has adapted its pulse compression technology to TRUMPF's industrial-grade lasers, offering compactness, cost-effectiveness, and scalability. This integration has resulted in an ultra-robust and long-term stable XUV source, accessible to a broad user base. The photon energy range between 20eV and 150eV can be covered with a single source employing our dual-color driving mode and switchable gas nozzles. The turnkey source provides unprecedented photon flux at the source point of >10¹⁰ photons/s in each harmonic between 80 eV and 140 eV. The brightness is respectively between 200W/(mm²sr)/1%BW and >1kW/(mm²sr)/1%BW for the different harmonic lines. Other AFS sources provide an even higher brightness at lower photon energies between 11eV and 80eV.
