What does the EUV and thin film group do? 1. Optical properties of matter in the EUV and 2. Soft X-rays Thin film preparation and characterization Allred N265 2-3489 Meeting M 1600- N288 ESC Thin Films for Mirrors Turley N308 2-3095 Meeting F 1600- N308 ESCVUV and EUV Spectrometers L V Knight N373 2-2450 Tues C389 BNSN (Linford) EUV Spectrometer Roentgen discovers x rays http://wave.xray.mpe.mpg.de/roentgen/roentgen-1.gif http://library.tedankara.k12.tr/chemistry/vol1/period/trans43.jpg http://users.zoominternet.net/~matto/M.C.A.S/electromagnetic_spectrum.gif Where do the EUV and Soft X-rays fit? Characteristics – interact strongly with all matter – Human hair is 100 micron. – Characteristic absorption length is 0.01 to 0.1 micron – Refractive index is ~1 How do you make optical elements to focus and direct light?
