Abstract:
A CO chemical laser, capable of producing stimulated laser emission having a wavelength between about 4.7 and about 5.9 microns, contains an enclosed optical resonant laser cavity containing CH2CO gas and means for supplying excitation energy to the CH2CO gas to form an active laser medium comprising vibrationally excited CO molecules.
Abstract:
A composition of matter which can be used as a laser crystal in a laser generator and which can be doped with sensitizer ions has the empirical chemical formula RM4 x(ZO4)3O:Ax, where A represents a lasing ion selected from Nd, Er, and Ho, x has a value from 0.001 to 1, M is an ion selected from La, Gd, Y and mixtures thereof, Z is an ion selected from Si and Ge and R is an ion selected from Sr, Ba, and Mg.
Abstract:
A composition of matter which can be used as a laser crystal in a laser generator and which can be doped with Cr sensitizer ions has the empirical chemical formula CaY4 x (SiO4)3O: Hox where x has a value from 0.001 to 1. The invention herein described was made in the course of or under a contract or subcontract thereunder with the Department of the Air Force (Contract F3361568 C-1129).
