Extreme ultraviolet radiation, also referred to as soft X-rays
or XUV, offers very special optical properties. The X-UV refractive
index of matter is such that normal reflection cannot take place on
polished surfaces whereas beam transmission through one micrometer
of almost all materials reduces to zero. Therefore, it has long
been a difficult task to imagine and to implement devices designed
for complex optics experiments in this wavelength range. Thanks to
new sources of coherent radiation - XUV-lasers and High Order
Harmonics - the use of XUV radiation, for interferometry,
holography, diffractive optics, non-linear radiation-matter
interaction, time-resolved study of fast and ultrafast phenomena
and many other applications, including medical sciences, is
ubiquitous.
