Abstract: | Laser action in the liquid medium Nd+3: SeOCl2is described. Details concerning the cell construction and the dependence of output on cell geometry and optical feedback are presented. Output energies of 13 joules with a differential efficiency of 1 percent are reported. An interpretation is offered for the phenomenon of self-Q-switching or the generation of multimegawatt spikes at low values of optical feedback. |
