PULSED ELECTRODELESS DISCHARGE AS A LIGHT SOURCE FOR LASER EXCITATION AND OBSERVATION OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF LASER OUTPUT

High voltage pulsed electrodeless discharge in rare gases can be used as a light source for laser excitation. In this paper, some initial experimental results in this respect are reported. In the first part of the paper, the light source and its light output measurements are described. The second part is concerned with some investigations of ruby and Nd-doped glass lasers, pumped with electrodeless discharge tubes. These investigations contain determination of thresholds, observation of spikes, oscillation on single mode, and regular damped oscillation.Finally, the possibilities of further development are discussed.
