OPTICAL PUMPS FOR LASERS. PHASE II.
Abstract
The work covered in this report is separated into three tasks. Task I describes the way high efficiency continuous pumping of Nd:YAG has been achieved through the use of spectral additive lamps. Task II describes the development of a long life xenon flash lamp suitable for pumping Nd:YAG at high repetition rates. Task III describes the development of theoretical techniques for determining the spectra from lamps so that in conjunction with a known absorption spectrum from a laser material, the most efficient pump can be predicted.
