HELIUM-CADMIUM LASER PARAMETERS
Population densities and lifetimes have been obtained for the 5p 2P1/2,3/2, 5s2 2D3/2,5/2, and 6s 2S1/2 levels of Cd II in a typical helium-cadmium laser discharge. These results show that there is no population inversion for the lines at 3536, 2749, and 2573 Å, previously thought to be possible las...

Zusammenfassung: | Population densities and lifetimes have been obtained for the 5p 2P1/2,3/2, 5s2 2D3/2,5/2, and 6s 2S1/2 levels of Cd II in a typical helium-cadmium laser discharge. These results show that there is no population inversion for the lines at 3536, 2749, and 2573 Å, previously thought to be possible laser transitions. The maximum available laser power is also estimated from these results for the cw laser transitions at 4416 and 3250 Å. |
