title: Demonstration of a novel laser-driven light source for broadband spectroscopy between 170 nm and 2.1 μm.
abstract: Combining broadband light sources with optical cavities is a well established approach to sensitive monitoring of trace species in both gas and liquid phases. Here we investigate for the first time the potential of a novel source based on laser-driven xenon plasma technology for spectroscopic studies of gaseous species over the 170-2100 nm spectral range.
