Many atomic and molecular systems of fundamental interest possess resonance frequencies in the extreme ultraviolet (XUV), where laser technology is limited and radiation sources have traditionally lacked long-term phase coherence. Recent breakthroughs in XUV frequency comb technology have demonstrated spectroscopy with resolution at the MHz-level but even higher resolutions are desired for future applications in precision measurement.
