  • Abstract
    A single Brewster window pulsed water vapor laser has been constructed. Its performance is compared with that of the laser built using the same mirrors, but with both enclosed in the discharge tube. With the Brewster window laser, 13 emission lines are detected, the strongest line at 27.95 μ having a peak power of 770 watts.
