Abstract

We demonstrate high-energy picosecond near-vacuum ultraviolet laser pulse generation. Frequency quadrupling is achieved by noncollinear sum-frequency mixing of the fundamental and the third harmonic of a two-stage Ti:sapphire amplifier in β-BaB2O4 crystal. UV pulses with energies of ∼10 mJ tunable from 195 to 210 nm at a 10 Hz repetition rate are obtained.
