For short-pulse energy extraction from a CO/sub 2/ laser amplifier it is desirable to use multiline/double-band amplification. Multiline/double-band oscillation including up to nine lines was obtained simultaneously from the 9.6- and 10.6-..mu..m bands by placing an etalon perpendicular to the optical axis of a CO/sub 2/ laser and adjusting its thickness in the oscillator cavity. Improvement in energy extraction was corroborated in the region of saturation amplification using a 1-atm electron-beam-controlled amplifier.
