Intense quasi-cw lasing in the visible region in a high-pressure mixture of inert gases
Intense quasi-cw lasing with an efficiency ^ 1 % has been achieved for the first time on 3/?-3s transitions of neon during electron-beam pumping of a high-pressure He:Ne:Kr(Ar) mixture. The upper working levels are populated selectively through the dissociative recombination of an electron with a molecular neon ion. An effective depopulation of the lower working levels is achieved in a process involving the liberation of an electron in an interaction of resonant levels of the neon atom with krypton (or argon).
