Abstract
We present a table-top setup for femtosecond x-ray absorption spectroscopy based on high harmonic generation (HHG) in noble gases. Using sub-millijoule pump pulses at a central wavelength of 1550 nm broadband HHG in the range 70 to 350 eV was demonstrated. The HHG coherence lengths of several millimeters were achieved by reaching the nonadiabatic regime of harmonic generation. NEXAFS experiments on the boron K edge of a boron foil and a hexagonal BN (hBN) 2D material demonstrate the capabilities of the setup.
