… provide stable references• Narrow Markers in
Frequency space– If high finesse
• High stability– ~10-15 @ 1 s– Hz linewidth @ 1 PHz– ~10-16m length
stability

… enhance nonlinear conversion
• Pc=F/– Output power grows
with finesse2 or higher!
• Example:– SHG 560nm->280nm– 900mW driving power
– 20% conversion: 900mW->200mW

… enhance sensitivity• Cavity absorbtion
spectroscopy– Increased
interaction length– Intrinsically narrow
band
• Cavity ring down– Intrinsically robust– Can be broad band

Cavity enhanced HHG
• Obvious requirements– No dispersion
• Electric field in the pulse envelope has to look the same for both pulses -> equidistant modespacing
– frep = fFSR• Timedelay between pulses = cavity roundtrip time
– fCEO matches• HHG inside the resonator

Possible Applications• Direct frequency comb spectroscopy in the
XUV– It is cw, so no transients
• Compact coherent XUV source for interferometry
• High repetition rate high intensity source for coincidence measurements
• BUT: power still low!• And many technical problems
• Use an amplifier!
