Abstract :
The emergence of Lewis-Rayleigh afterglow under conditions of UV laser radiation formation and absence of any IR lasing in nitrogen pumped by a pulsed inductive discharge is demonstrated. The dependence of Lewis-Rayleigh afterglow intensity on pumping conditions and the reasons of IR lasing absence in inductive discharge nitrogen laser are experimentally investigated.
