Abstract

Two tunable dye lasers, operating in the region 7000 to 8500 Å, have been used to study the wavelength dependence of laser‐induced gas breakdown. The results confirm the existence of a threshold maximum for argon and xenon, and indicate that the shape and location of the peak depend on the gas investigated.
