Abstract
The design, construction, and performance of a low-cost, transversely excited molecular nitrogen laser are described in detail. Peak powers of over 100 kW at pulse repetition rates of 20 pps have been achieved at a total cost, including vacuum pump and power supply, of under $800. Some simple experiments and demonstrations using this laser are suggested.Keywords
