Highly efficient DUV generation at 100 kHz via Yb pumped four-wave mixing in stretched hollow-core fibers

Ruaridh Forbes, Paul Hockett, Rune Lausten

We report the generation of the fifth harmonic of Yb at 206 nm with pulse energies exceeding 16 $\hat{I}¼$J and durations of approximately 100 fs at a repetition rate of 100 kHz. The dee…
