A flashlamp pumped zig-zag slab dye laser
Abstract
In the experiments reported here, the zig-zag principle is extended from solid slab to liquid dye lasers. A zig-zag dye laser is constructed, and the laser beam quality is observed for both straight-through and zig-zag paths. The zig-zag dye cell and its associated flashlamp pumping system are described, and thermally induced effects in the system are discussed.
