ABSTRACT:
A light-amplifying medium is pumped by an auxiliary excitation source and has a number of energy levels, the laser transition being intended to correspond to the laser pulse delivered by the oscillator and to take place between the upper laser level and the lower laser level. Mirrors placed around the amplifying medium reflect the laser pulse from one mirror to the next so that the time interval between two successive pulse traversals within the amplifying medium is longer than the time of population transfer between on the one hand the upper reserve level and the upper laser level and on the other hand the lower laser level and the lower reserve level. The amplifying medium is thus regenerated by population exchange at the lower and upper levels between each pulse traversal through the amplifying medium.
