Abstract: | We have very recently begun to experimentally test a simple scheme for enhancing the efficiency of a pulsedF
2 laser that our group proposed several years ago. This scheme involves the use of a pulsed nanosecond-time-scale infrared laser to deplete the terminal state of anF
2 (157 nm) laser in order to enhance its performance. If the scheme should prove to be workable, this would imply that a cw two-photon UV femtosecond pulse generator might be constructed on the basis ofF
2 transitions.Prof. F.P. Schäfer on the occasion of his 65th birthday. |
