Pulsed Tunable Narrow-Bandwidth Dye Laser, with Hollow Circular Waveguide in Cavity.

Abstract

This paper presents a novel widely tunable, pulsed dye laser with single transverse mode narrow bandwidth which can be constructed by using a grazing- incidence grating in conjunction with a hollow circular dielectric waveguide. The experimental results show that the single transverse mode narrow bandwidth laser output can be obtained while maintaining a high lasing efficiency. The mechanism of the improvement is also discussed in this paper.
