  Method for modifying the film of a photosensitive chemical material - Patent 5711999
Also, the photosensitive chemical material is irradiated with ultraviolet light in an atmospheric gas containing desired functional groups in order to introduce the functional groups into the positions of radicals generated by the decomposition reaction of the photosensitive chemical material due to photochemical reaction.
The spectrum of a low pressure mercury lamp corresponds mostly to the emission from mercury atoms in a long life metastable state corresponding to the energy of deep ultraviolet light, and much of electrical energy is converted at a high efficiency in the form of deep ultraviolet light of a strong monochromaticity.
As the result, the efficiency of deep ultraviolet emission is as low as 1 percent or below, and since ineffectively consumed energy ultimately causes defects such as temperature rise in the light emitting part, auxiliary devices such as cooling devices and optical filters, causing the equipment to be large and complicated.

 All About the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Before embarking on a mission as ambitious as the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer, scientists had to be sure they could observe a reasonable number of diverse, scientifically interesting objects at extreme ultraviolet wavelengths through the interstellar medium.
The extreme ultraviolet region of the spectrum is a particularly difficult one to observe.
Similarly, ordinary visible light and ultraviolet light detectors cannot be used at these wavelengths because their protective covers absorbs the extreme ultraviolet light, preventing it from reaching the actual detection devices.

 Nanolithography - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The most common nanolithographic technique is Electron-Beam Direct-Write Lithography (EDBW), the use of a beam of electrons to produce a pattern — typically in a polymeric resist such as PMMA.
Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography (EUV) is a form of optical lithography using ultrashort wavelengths (13.5 nm).
For example, individual atoms may be manipulated using the tip of a Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM).

Extreme ultraviolet lithography, a technology being developed by a consortium of U.S. national laboratories and the semiconductor industry, is a strong contender to produce new generations of computer chips with features perhaps as small as 30 nanometers.
For example, extreme ultraviolet light, sometimes called soft X-ray, is strongly absorbed by matter.
Another problem is the generation of a reliable supply of extreme ultraviolet light with wavelengths in the range of 10 to 14 nanometers.

 Duke free-electron laser breaks 'psychological' 2,000 angstrom wavelength barrier
The OK-4 previously became the first FEL to emit laser light in the ultraviolet when it set a previous 2,400-angstrom wavelength record in October 1998 that endured for about eight years.
The OK-4 is empowered by a storage ring capable of operating at 1.1 billion electron volts of energy, though a number of technical problems have prevented the laser from taking full advantage of that power source.
Plans are in place to upgrade those systems and to increase the average power of the OK-4 to several watts, which will make it the most powerful tunable laser in the deep ultraviolet range, he said.
