ABSTRACT:
A pulsed laser system for generating light pulses or variable duration which includes a elongated member defining a laser discharge chamber having first and second ends, a gain medium disposed within the discharge chamber and means for stimulating pulse laser emission of the gain medium within the discharge chamber. A first reflector is positioned adjacent the first end of the discharge chamber, and a second reflector is positioned at a variable distance from the second end of the discharge chamber. By varying the distance of the second reflector from the second end of the discharge chamber, the duration of pulses emitting from the discharge chamber is varied.
