Fluorescence and lasing characteristics of some long-lived flashlamp-pumpable, oxazole dyes
Abstract
The effects of dye structure, cover gas, and solvent are all shown to be critical to laser output and lifetime. The N-methyl tosylate salt of 2-(4-pyridyl)-5-(4-methoxyphenyl) oxazole in ethanol under argon is found to be the longest-lived, moderate output, laser dye solution of any that have been reported.
