Scientific paper

Tunable UV Fabry-Perot etalons have the potential of providing images, dopplergrams, and density maps of the Sun's upper chromosphere and transition region. To study the feasibility of this approach, we developed and built tunable laboratory etalons for the 135 - 141 and 120 - 123 nm wavelength ranges. At 140 nm we achieved a finesse of 10.5 and a peak transmission of 3 percent. This performance is sufficient to observe the density sensitive line pair of O IV at 140.4 and 140.7 nm. At 122 nm (H Lyman alpha) we achieved a finesse of 3.8 and a peak transmission of 0.07 percent.
