Ultrafast Extreme-Ultraviolet Photoemission Spectroscopy at 18.4 MHz

In the past two decades, attosecond science has led to important insights into ultrafast electron dynamics. Whilst extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) photon flux attained from high harmonic generation (HHG) has increased significantly over this time, space-charge effects limit the maximum allowable number of photons per pulse for many attosecond experiments, especially in multidimensional — i.e., either angularly (ARPES) or spatially (PEEM) resolved — photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) on solids [1,2]. To allow for higher average flux without increasing space-charge impairments, HHG sources at higher repetition rates are needed.
