Traveling-Wave Geometry for Short Wavelength Lasers

Steve Harris and J.F. Young

Stanford researchers have demonstrated a new pumping geometry that promises to be a significant step in the development of practical photoionization-pumped short-wavelength lasers. Using this method, they have observed single-pass, fully saturated gain near 100 nm in both Xe and Cs.
