Abstract

The output power characteristics of a He–Ne laser are studied as an illustration of a four-level gas laser excitation scheme. A linear dependence of the output power on the pumping rate is deduced from measurements of the output power as a function of the excitation current for various cavity lifetimes. These investigations are suitable for a laboratory course for advanced physics students.
