Abstract :
Two methods of operating red CW dye lasers are examined. A single laser with a mixture of rhodamine 6G and cresyl violet perchlorate (CVP) is compared with a tandem system in which a rhodamine 6G laser is used to pump a CVP laser. At high pumping levels the tandem system is shown to be superior.
