Efficient Coherent XUV Generation and Manipulation in Microfluidic Glass Devices

Optics 2023-07-06 v1

Abstract

The development of compact and bright XUV and soft X-ray sources based on high-order harmonic generation is boosting advances towards understanding the behavior of matter with extreme temporal and spatial resolutions. Here, we report efficient XUV generation inside microfluidic devices fabricated by femtosecond laser irradiation followed by chemical etching. Our microfluidic approach allows one to control and manipulate the generation conditions in gas on a micro-meter scale with unprecedented flexibility, thus enabling a high photon-flux and broadband harmonics spectra up to 200 eV.
