Passive apparatus for stabilizing a flashlamp-pumped dye laser

摘要

A passive thermal control system for a flashlamp-pumped dye laser utilizes heated deionized water in a heat exchanger located in the reservoir of the dye lasing solution to minimize the temperature gradients in the dye lasing solution by decreasing the difference in temperature between the dye lasing solution and the deionized water flashlamp coolant.
