Abstract

UV optical pulses at 248 nm and 193 nm generated by frequency conversion of highrepetition rate Ti: sapphire laser pulses are amplified in commercial excimer amplifiers at up to 500 Hz repetition rate. At 248 nm maximum pulse energies exceeding 10 mJ at pulse durations of 350 fs have been obtained. At 193 nm average powers of 290 mW at 400 Hz with pulse durations of 300 fs have been generated.
