Title: Experimental study of cavity configurations for dye lasers pumped by a copper vapor laser

Journal Article · · Chin. Phys. Lasers; (United States)
OSTI ID:6747883

Four cavity configurations are considered for dye lasers pumped transversely by a CuBr laser at high pulse repetition frequencies. Their operating characteristics are compared. Optimum performance is found for a double-prism expander cavity equipped with a Littrow mounted grating. A single longitudinal mode lasing in the 598--640 nm range was achieved with a linewidth of 0.0012 nm and a conversion of efficiency of 7.5%, respectively. The amplified spontaneous emission was 1.5%.
