Spectral narrowing of a dye laser oscillation using an intracavity vapor prism
1976
Abstract A new method for narrowing the oscillation spectrum of a broad-band dye laser is reported in this paper. The narrowing is achieved by a vapor prism placed inside the laser cavity, which is based on an anomalous dispersion of the atomic vapor so that the narrowing effect occurs only in the vicinity of the absorption line. Using a sodium vapor prism inside a Rhodamine 6G dye laser cavity, an oscillation linewidth less than 0.01 nm was attained at a sodium temperature of 320°C.
