Polarimeter for broadband deep UV (DUV) & EUV / XUV light

Polarimetry in the deep ultraviolet and extreme ultraviolet range has scientific applications. We offer polarimeter systems which provide extinction ratios of perpendicularly oriented polarization directions of several hundreds. The polarimeters are customized to match the needs of your application. The polarimeter system has a compact design and is fully UHV-rated.

Applications

Typical applications ranges from polarimetry of broadband EUV radiation sources like high harmonics from femtosecond IR laser pulses (HHG) or from laser-plasma EUV-sources, EUV ellipsometry, or the investigation of birefringent magnetic nano-structures. The polarimeter can be used as an polarizer and analyzer.
