Title: Developments toward a reliable diode-pumped hydrocarbon-free 795-nm rubidium laser

Conference ·

We report a 795-nm diode-pumpable Rb laser using a buffer gas of pure {sup 3}He. {sup 3}He gas enhances mixing of the Rb fine-structure levels. This enables efficient lasing at reduced He pressures and improved thermal management.
