Abstract

Free-electron-based light sources have long attracted interest due to their continuous tunability that has been demonstrated to extend across the electromagnetic spectrum from millimetre waves and microwaves through the infrared and visible to ultraviolet and X-ray regions. However this intrinsic tunability, particularly at short wavelengths, usually involves sources that are large and costly. The prospect of a compact, continuously tunable light source with the capability to generate short-wavelength ultraviolet and even X-ray light is an exciting one for many scientific, medical and engineering applications.
