  • Abstract
    The amplification of a laser pulse has been evaluated numerically for three different laser media, viz., Nd-POCl3, Nd-glass, and ruby. An energy-utilization factor is defined and calculated for the same media. Finally, a dimensionless plot is given from which the amplification can be calculated for arbitrary numerical conditions.
