Abstract
When frequency tripling to Lyman-α in Kr, we find a
Kerr-induced index mismatch per atom of γKr
= −5.6 × 10−36 esu, which dominates
the dispersion for power densities exceeding 4 × 1012
W/cm2. Results of phase matching Kr with Ar and Xe are presented.
Dielectric breakdown provides a limitation that, when combined with a
requirement of a 1-Å bandwidth at Lyman-α,
indicates that powers of a few kilowatts are achievable in a Kr–Ar
phase-matched medium.
