Laser Physics: Lifetime Measurements, Line Profiles, Hollow Cathode Excitation and Excited State Spectroscopy.

Abstract

Research performed and published over the report period is summarized. Measurements of lifetimes in molecular Nitrogen laser levels, transfer cross sections in Ar-N2 mixtures, line broadening in Ne and Ar are reported. Techniques for line profile analysis and gain measurement in exciplex laser systems are discussed. Properties of mode-locked cavity-dumped Argon ion laser pulses were measured and discussed.
