How far into the UV do you want to consider?
I have successfully imaged stellar spectra with a Genesis and ATiK 314 down to 375nm.
You also have to consider the CCD response in the UV......
lenses / objectives / mirrors for below 405nm

Re: lenses / objectives / mirrors for below 405nm
I would include the Takahashi TOA 150 (down to 350 nm).
If Balow lens are to be included, I would add Baader FFC. (down to 350 nm).
I don't know whether this is relevant to the post, but I have OSLO simulations of a variety of Barlow lenses down to 350 nm:
