Vacuum ultraviolet circularly polarized coherent femtosecond pulses from laser seeded relativistic electrons

We have demonstrated the generation of circularly polarized coherent light pulses at 66 nm wavelength by combining laser seeding at 263 nm of a 375 MeV relativistic electron bunch with subsequent coherent harmonic generation from an elliptical undulator of APPLE-II type. Coherent pulses at higher ha...
