  1. Extreme Ultraviolet Radiation Spectrometer Design and Optimization Shaun Pacheco Mentors: Dr. Guillaume Laurent & Wei Cao

  2. Research Project • Goal 1: Improve the Resolution • Goal 2: Calibrate the Spectrometer • to find wavelengths • not intensity profile

  6. Energies Allowed in Experiment Transmission Argon Highest Order cut-off determined by E = 3.2Up + Ip Ip is the ionization potential of the gas Up is the mean kinetic energy of the electron Highest energy seen is 51eV Aluminum Foil Photon Energy (eV) Aluminum Foil 200 nm thickness Argon - 200 mTorr for 3 cm followed by 5 mTorr for 1 m Tong.

  8. Goal 1: Improving the Resolution Microchannel Plate 4 mm Phosphor plate Old Gap 10 mm Phosphor plate was moved from 10 mm away to 4 mm

  9. Goal 1: Resolution improved New Resolution Old Resolution

  10. Goal 2: Calibrating the Spectrum Find distance of each spectral line from zero order Integrate across the spectral lines to get intensities d is the slit spacing m is the diffraction order θi is the incident angle θd is the diffracted angle

  11. Calibrated Spectrum Black Curve is the photoelectron spectrum Blue Curve is the spectrum from the XUV spectrometer Energy resolution is comparable to photoelectron spectrum Count (arb. Units) Photoelectron Energy (eV)

  12. Results and Discussion Blue Shift Can be Observed Blue Curve – Low Intensity, no blue shift Red Curve – Medium Intensity, blue shift Yellow Curve – High Intensity, blue shift Harmonics

  13. Conclusion • XUV spectrum is now comparable to photoelectron spectrum • Spectrometer good enough to observe small change in the harmonic wavelength • Improvements: • Calibrate the intensity profile of XUV spectrum
