Abstract
Recent progress in the development of XUV lasers by research teams usi ng high-power and ultrashort-pulse Nd:glass and KrF laser facilities a t the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory is reviewed. Injector-amplifier o peration and prepulse enhanced output of the Ge XXIII collisional lase r driven by a kilojoule glass laser, enhanced gain in CVI recombinatio n with picosecond CPA drive pulses from a glass laser, and optical fie ld ionization and XUV harmonic generation with a KrF CPA laser are des cribed.
