Theoretical Studies of Oxygen-Iodine Laser Mechanisms and New Laser Concepts

Abstract

This report summarizes theoretical studies of molecular dynamics, of spin-forbidden molecular transitions, of gain-dependent dispersions in excimer lasers, and of path-integral approaches applied to descriptions of quantum optical phenomena. It also summarizes two other studies, one of injection locking of arrays of lasers and another of detuning effects in laser instabilities.
