New heat pipe oven devices for broad band excitation laser studies
Abstract
A heat pipe oven type device was designed and operated with sodium at temperatures up to 450° C without significant deposit on the window that was within 2 to 3 cm of the sodium vapor. The uniformity of sodium vapor in the device was such that laser action in the Na2 A→X transitions was achieved.
