At AIST, we have been making an effort to obtain FELs with an ultra-wide wavelength range from the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) to the infrared (IR) on a compact storage ring NIJI-IV. Recently, performance of the NIJI-IV FEL was improved at the deep UV (DUV) around 200 nm and it became possible to make real-time observation of chemical reactions on the transition metal surfaces using the photoelectron emission microscopy (PEEM) combined with the DUV FELs. To observe dynamic behavior of the chemical reactions in detail, the FEL-PEEM system is being improved by optimizing experimental conditions. The performance of the system and the experimental results will be presented.

Free electron lasers (FELs) are being developed in a broad wavelength region from the VUV to the IR with the compact storage ring NIJI-IV at AIST. In the DUV and VUV regions, the FEL is used as an intense light source for real-time surface observation with the photoelectron emission microscopy. To extend the application field of the NIJI-IV FEL, for example to the structural analysis of proteins, experiments to obtain FEL oscillations at the wavelength below 195 nm are going on. In addition, a 3.6-m optical klystron, ETLOK-III, for developing infrared FELs has been installed in the north straight section of the NIJI-IV. Fundamental and higher harmonic spontaneous emissions from the ETLOK-III were observed in the visible and near-infrared regions. It was expected that the FEL gain for the 3rd harmonics exceed 5%. In the presentation, we will report the recent results of the VUV and IR FEL experiments.
