Abstract
Tunable coherent VUV radiation from 115.8 to 116.9 nm has been produced by non-linear four-wave sum frequency mixing in a xenon–argon mixture. 116.5 nm light generated by this means has been used as the first step in a three color, doubly resonant ionization scheme for Kr. In the process of validating the system the xenon refractive index per atom (STP) at 116.5 nm has been determined to be (n(Xe) − 1)/NXe = −6.8(±0.8) × 10−23 cm3.
