Lasers with Nuclear Pumping

  • 743 Accesses

Abstract

Investigations of optical inhomogeneities in sealed NPLs have revealed that flowing of the gas medium through the laser cavity is a necessary condition for achieving CW lasing in the stationary and quasi-stationary excitation modes. Gas heating is a no less important factor that requires the implementation of gas flowing.
