Ultrabright tabletop UV sources for nuclear-referenced optical clocks and materials metrologies

We demonstrate ~100mW of VUV light at 8.4eV at a MHz repetition rate using four-wave mixing in structured hollow fibers. The novel source has applications in photoionization and photoelectron spectroscopies, and in nuclear-referenced optical clocks.
