Iron bromide vapor laser

We have studied the characteristics of a pulsed gas-discharge laser on iron bromide vapor generating radiation with a wavelength of 452.9 nm at a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) of 5–30 kHz. The maximum output power amounted to 10 mW at a PRF within 5–15 kHz for a voltage of 20–25 kV applied to ele...

Description
Summary:We have studied the characteristics of a pulsed gas-discharge laser on iron bromide vapor generating radiation with a wavelength of 452.9 nm at a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) of 5–30 kHz. The maximum output power amounted to 10 mW at a PRF within 5–15 kHz for a voltage of 20–25 kV applied to electrodes of the discharge tube. Addition of HBr to the medium produced leveling of the radial profile of emission. Initial weak lasing at a wavelength of 868.9 nm was observed for the first time, which ceased with buildup of the main 452.9-nm line.
