Self-mode-locking of a transversely excited N2 laser in the first positive system at 1.048 μm

An investigation has been made of the spontaneous self-mode-locking in a transient transversely excited N2 laser operating in the first positive system (B3πg−A 3Σu+) in molecular nitrogen on the 0–0 band at 1.048 μm. The laser emission, which had a typical pulse length of 60 nsec, consisted of a tra...

Zusammenfassung:An investigation has been made of the spontaneous self-mode-locking in a transient transversely excited N2 laser operating in the first positive system (B3πg−A 3Σu+) in molecular nitrogen on the 0–0 band at 1.048 μm. The laser emission, which had a typical pulse length of 60 nsec, consisted of a train of mode-locked pulses of about 6-nsec duration with a peak power of about 0.5 kW.
