Summary

The small-signal gain in thalliumiodide vapor photodissociated with the 193 nm emission of an ArF excimer-laser was measured as a function of the pump energy. The emission of a small thallium laser was used as a probe beam. The gain measurements led to the determination of the cross-section for stimulated emission at 535 nm of 12.5×10−13 cm2.

Résumé

Le gain à faible intensité dans de la vapeur de iodure de thallium, photodissociée à l'aide d'un laser à excimère d'ArF, a été mesuré en fonction de l'énergie de pompage. L'émission d'un petit laser à thallium a été utilisée comme faisceau test. Les mesures de gain ont permis de déterminer la section efficace pour l'émission stimulée à 535 nm, la valeur obtenue étant de 12,5×10−13 cm2.
