Some Trends in Laser Development

  • Chapter
Theoretical Problems in the Spectroscopy and Gas Dynamics of Lasers

Part of the book series: The Lebedev Physics Institute Series ((LPIS,volume 83))

  • 34 Accesses

Abstract

An analysis of the current state of gas and plasma lasers is given. The basic trends and factors limiting the efficiency of these lasers are described. The quasiequilibrium distributions over the vibrational, rotational, and electronic levels which play an important role in research on the physical kinetics of lasers are discussed.
