Efficient narrow spectral output in the blue-green region from an injection-controlled electron-beam excited XeF (CA) laser

Abstract
Efficient, narrow spectral output has been achieved by injection control of an electron‐beam excited XeF (CA) laser medium using a 482‐nm dye laser pulse having a spectral width of 0.01 nm. The energy density and intrinsic efficiency characteristic of the amplified output beam were 3 J/l and approximately 2.5%, respectively, and the spectral width was on the order of that of the injected pulse.
