Abstract

Efficient laser output at 308 nm has been obtained from XeCl in an Ne/Xe/HCl mixture at a pressure of 4 atm by e -beam excitation and by e -beam controlled discharge pumping. Maximum energy extraction is 7 J/1 for e -beam excitation and 9 J/1 for the e -beam controlled discharge. Efficiencies based on total energy deposited in the gas are approximately 4 percent. Similar results were obtained with KrF in the same device, indicating that under e -beam or e -beam controlled discharge excitation, XeCl may be as efficient as KrF.
