Stimulated emission from thulium bromide vapor

V. A. Gerasimov, B. P. Yunzhakov


Abstract: Stimulated emission was achieved for the first time due to atomic transitions in a rare-earth element by dissociation of vapor of a rare-earth element halide in a pulsed discharge. The range of existence of lasing due to the λ = 1448 nm transition in Tm I was studied in thulium bromide vapor.
