Paper Abstract
We have demonstrated an argon excimer vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) amplifier at 126 nm by using the optical-field induced ionization (OFI) of argon. The gain-length product of 5.6 was achieved as a result of the optical feedback inside the amplifier with a VUV mirror. Plasma self-channeling caused by the high-intensity pump laser was simultaneously observed when the maximum gain-length product was observed. We have also optimized the output power of a subpicosecond VUV seed beam at 126 nm produced in low-pressure
rare-gases as a result of the seventh harmonic nonlinear wavelength conversion of a Ti:Sapphire laser at 882 nm.
