Gain conditions for electron-beam-excited Ar-N2 laser lines at 337.1, 357.7, and 380.5 nm

Abstract
Simultaneous laser action of argon‐nitrogen mixtures excited by an electron beam has been observed at 337.1, 357.7, and 380.5 nm. Spectrally resolved gain and laser output were measured for these three lines. Different gas mixtures and resonator configurations were studied and the best conditions for each line were established.
