MEASUREMENTS OF TRANSIENT GAIN AND LOSS IN SOLID STATE VUV LASER MATERIALS
A number of rare-earth doped fluorides may be pumped by F2 laser radiation, offering the prospect of efficient and powerful tunable VUV lasers. At present the observation of VUV laser oscillation in many of these systems is hampered by the large absorption losses caused by even low levels of impurit...
