Streamer discharges generated by nanosecond high-voltage pulses have gained attraction
for a variety of reasons, but mainly because they are very efficient for a number of plasma …

Reviews the underlying physics and key technology developments of excimer lasers. The
paper traces both e-beam pumped lasers, which were the initial vehicle for demonstrating …

Computer models developed so far on electron‐beam‐excited KrF (B–X, 248 nm) lasers that
include the vibrational relaxation process in the upper lasing B level at the finite rate could …

Aurora is the Los Alamos National Laboratory short-pulse, high-power, KrF laser system. It
serves as an end-to-end technology demonstration for large-scale ultraviolet laser systems …

Multistage, e-beam-pumped, 100 J-class KrF laser installation “GARPUN” is described with
the emphases to high-power laser beam control and target irradiation experiments. The …

We provide a review of experimental and theoretical studies devoted to exciplex rare–halide
lasers. The main kinetic processes governing the operation of such lasers are considered …

Experimental observations on a double-pass methane Raman amplifier pumped by a KrF
laser demonstrate efficient photon extraction (75-85 percent) of multiple pump pulses and …

A three-dimensional computer code of amplified spontaneous emission for a high power
krypton fluoride (KrF) laser amplifier having a cylindrical symmetry and small aspect ratio is …

Two of the key issues of a krypton fluoride (KrF) laser driver for inertial fusion energy are the
development of long life, high transparency pressure foils (to isolate vacuum in the electron …

We have demonstrated the use of phase-conjugate stimulated Brillouin scattering mirrors to
produce high-quality, short-pulse KrF laser beams from angular multiplexed and …
