ABSTRACT

Organic dye lasers are tabulated in order of increasing wavelength of the gain maximum in Table 3.1.1. Lasers that have been tuned over a range of wavelengths are listed by the lowest wavelength reported or the range is listed in parentheses after the gain maximum. The tuning range given is that for the experimental configuration and conditions used and may not represent the extremes possible. In the following columns the dye and solvent are given together with the pump source and primary reference to laser action.
