Abstract
Stable resonators with multilayer optics have been used with XUV laser systems at 131 Å and at 206.3 Å in Ne-like Mo and Ne- like Se lasers, respectively.1 We investigate possible applications of unstable resonators as an efficient means of generating collimated output from XUV laser systems. It is suggested that unstable resonator geometry can overcome the limit of low output coupling of stable resonators and can produce diffraction-limited laser output.
