Title: Scaling of an injection-controlled XeF(C. -->. A) laser pumped by a repetitively pulsed, high current density electron beam

Abstract

This letter reports the design and performance of a scaled, injection-controlled XeF(C..-->..A) laser pumped by a repetitively pulsed, high current density electron beam with a temporal duration of 10 ns full width at half maximum. Injection of a 2 mJ pulse at 486.8 nm having a spectral width of <0.005 nm resulted in an amplified output of 0.7 J corresponding to energy density and efficiency values of 1.5 J/l-script and 1.2%.
