Laser spectroscopy can be a powerful tool to get insight into atomic and nuclear structures of exotic elements such as the heavy actinides. However, commonly applied techniques often lack the required sensitivity as most of these nuclides are very short-lived and can only be produced in atom-at-a-time quantities. The efficient and sensitive RAdiation-Detected Resonance Ionization Spectroscopy (RADRIS) method enabled the first laser spectroscopy of nobelium and it was recently applied to study a chain of fermium isotopes. To expand this technique for the search of atomic levels in the heaviest actinide, lawrencium (Z=103), the sensitivity of the setup needs to be further improved. Therefore, a new movable double-detector setup was developed, which allows an enhancement in the overall efficiency by about 60 % compared to the single-detector design. Further development work was performed to enable the study of shorter-lived (<1 s) and longer-lived (>1 h) nuclides with the RADRIS method. The most recent results on the commissioning of the new setup will be presented.
