Abstract
Results of the development and study of an image brightness amplifier on manganese atom transitions for problems of object visualization in active optical systems are presented. The possibility in principle of using the developed active element for visualization of objects and processes in two spectral ranges—visible and near-IR—is shown. Profiles of the active element radiation beam at pulse repetition frequencies of up to 100 kHz have been obtained.
