A 1.5 W CW optically pumped 12.08 μm NH 3 laser
Abstract
Order-of-magnitude increase in output power and efficiency has been obtained from the new CW 12.08 μm NH 3 Raman laser optically pumped by low-pressure CO 2 laser. The 12.08 μm output power is analyzed as a function of the main operational parameters.
