Abstract

High-resolution spectroscopy at 125 nm is performed on xenon, using amplified frequency comb pulse trains that are frequency up-converted in a gas cell. It is shown that the phase coherence in the up-conversion process is maintained to better than l/30th of a VUV cycle, thereby demonstrating the potential for sub-MHz accuracy in the vacuum-ultraviolet.
