Abstract :
Efficient generation of synthesized multicolor laser light, which ordinarily is limited by the competition between lasing lines, is obtained by means of time multiplexing of oscillations at various wavelengths. Experimental results are described wherein a rotating mirror with sectors of varying reflectivity is used in a mixed-ion argon-krypton laser.
