Ab initio calculations show the /sup 3/..sigma../sub g//sup +/--/sup 3/..sigma../sub u//sup +/ in Li/sub 2/ and Na/sub 2/ dimers to be primarily a near-infrared continuum with respective v'=0 lifetimes of 62 and 15 nsec. The peak stimulated emission cross section for v'=0 is 4.5 x 10/sup - -6/ at 1.3..mu.. for Li/sub 2/ and 1.8 x 10/sup -15/ cm/sup 2/ at 0.83..mu.. for Na/sub 2/. These calculations suggest a tunable high gain, near-infrared laser excimer if the /sup 3/..sigma../sub g//sup +/ state can be populated sufficiently rapidly.
