The Rare Gas Excimers

  • Chapter
Excimer Lasers

Part of the book series: Topics in Applied Physics ((TAP,volume 30))

Abstract

In this chapter three types of excimer lasers will be discussed. These are the pure noble gas excimers, the rare gas oxides and the diatomic halogens. The closely related rare gas halide systems are examined in Chap. 4. The historical development of the noble gas excimer laser systems has already been discussed in Chap. 1, while the details of the potential curves relevant to the excimer systems appear in Chap. 2. Our discussion here, therefore, will be confined to a sketch of the present understanding of the kinetics and energy flow governing these systems, and also a brief summary of the more recent experimental efforts demonstrating the characteristics of these molecular systems.
