Abstract
We demonstrate that in a short Ar cell, generation of the fifth harmonic from pulses at directly results in ultrashort vacuum UV pulses at . They have a spectral width of and a duration of (1.4 times the transform limit), as measured by cross correlation with the fundamental pulses. Their energy (estimated to ) turned out to be sufficient for use as a pump in time-resolved experiments.
