Abstract :
An inexpensive pulsed xenon ion laser with peak power outputs up to 4 kW has been constructed and used as a pump source for a tunable rhodamine 6G dye laser with a 0.25-Å bandpass in the yellow-red range of the spectrum. The dye laser is tunable from 5465 to 6300 Å. Over 50 W are obtained at the peak of the tuning range.
