Quantum efficiency measurements for several waveshifter coatings in the extreme vacuum ultravioletQuantum efficiency measurements are given for coronene and liumogen coatings designed to enhance UV sensitivity for silicon charge coupled device imaging detectors. Coatings on quartz and on UDT PIN 10DP photodiodes were tested. The wavelength range extended from 153.7 to 50.0 nm in the vacuum ultraviolet. Similar measurements were made for coronene, liumogen, and stilbene-3 laser dye films on quartz disks relative to sodium salicylate. Sodium salicylate and coronene are the most efficient waveshifters down to 50 nm so far observed. Coronene's fairly constant quantum efficiency over such a wide wavelength range into the far VUV makes it a useful waveshifter for UV and VUV applications.
