The rapid advances in the development of electric-discharge exciplex lasers and powerful effective sources of UV coherent radiation have uncovered far-reaching prospects for their practical use in various fields of sciences and engineering, such as microelectronics, medicine, ecology (remote detection of contamination in the atmosphere), photochemistry, plasma diagnostics, and others. The wavelength range in which high-power coherent radiation is possible can be greatly expanded by using stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in metal vapor and compressed gases. This paper is devoted to an investigation of the optimal conditions of SRS-conversion of XeCl-laser emission in lead vapor, methane, and hydrogen.
