An investigation of a barium vapor laser

P. A. Bokhan, V. I. Solomonov


Abstract: A study was made of the energy characteristics of a barium vapor laser operating at a wavelength of 1.5 μ. A maximum specific energy output of 8 μJ/cm³ was obtained at an efficiency of 0.16%. Under constant excitation conditions the specific energy output was independent of the discharge-tube diameter.
