Broadly tunable coherent VUV/XUV radiations from 92 to 145 nm were generated by nonresonant four-wave sum-mixing (FWSM) and third-harmonic generation (THG) in pulsed jet of Xe or Kr.

The dependence of phase-matching on gas density, atomic dispersion was observed. THG enhanced by third-photon resonant with the high Rydberg states in Xe was observed, and the resolved principal quantum number was up to 34.展开更多

Factors with respect to the frequency conversion efficiency, including the line strength of the nonlinear susceptibility, the density of the media and the phase-matching, are discussed. By analyzing the characteristics of the four-wave mixing spectra in molecular gases, some physical parameters and the population of the energy levels are obtained. This indicates that nonlinear optical frequency conversion process provides a useful method to study the structure and spectra of molecules.展开更多
