UV high-power inductive N2 laser

Abstract

For the first time, when the nitrogen was pumped by a pulsed inductive discharge, generation energy of 11 mJ was obtained with pulse duration 10 ± 1 ns (FWHM). Pulse power exceeded 1 MW. The maximum value of the efficiency of the deposited energy was about 0.39%. Laser generation was obtained at two wavelengths of 337.1 and 357.7 nm.
