A New Method for Determination of Line-Shape Parameters of High-Gain Laser Transition
Abstract
A simple method for determining the line-shape parameters of high-gain laser transitions is developed. Four important parameters, i.e. the Doppler width, the Lorentzian width, the saturation intensity and the population inversion density, can be determined by the analysis of the spectral width and the gain saturation. This method is applied to the 3.39 μm Ne line.
