Miniature TEA laser emitting picosecond pulses laser tea miniature emettant des pulses picosecondes

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6357680
A new TEA laser with a volume 100 to 1,000 times smaller than that of a commercial laser with the same peak power was developed. Due to its reduced dimensions and short pulse time, a new range of applications is possible. The main characteristics of the new high pressure nitrogen UV laser are listed. Possible applications are mentioned: plasma diagnostics and analysis in thermonuclear research; space-time impulse holography; miniature Pockels cell; miniature telemeter; pumping source for a liquid laser; energy source for pulse spectral analysis; Auston switch and other optical electronic applications; and triggerable spark gaps.
