Efficiency of laser pumping by xenon flashlamps with interference coatings

Journal Article · · Sov. J. Quant. Electron. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)
Results are presented of tests on xenon flashlamps with dielectric coatings deposited on their quartz bulbs. These coatings reflect ultraviolet radiation and transmit radiation in the absorption bands of neodymium glass. Depending on the type of lamp and the electrical conditions, the stimulated-emission efficiency was improved by 20--60%.
