Abstract

1030 nm ytterbium-based solid-state femtosecond lasers are essential to robust near ultraviolet (NUV) and deep ultraviolet (DUV) generation. We will present the most up-to-date results in up to 6th harmonic generation and even x-ray generation. Lifetime, pulse-to-pulse, long-term stability, beam quality, and warm-up time will be reviewed as critical factors for successful materials processing and other applications. Last but not least, we will discuss various novel achievements already incorporated into commercial products, such as beam-shaped output directly from the module, pico-, and nanosecond spaced bursts in UV.
