Abstract

A simple, robust and reliable, spectrally narrow light source has been developed for atmospheric lidar and related applications. The heart of the source is a tunable, single frequency alexandrite ring laser oscillator operating near 791 nm. Its output is raman shifted in hydrogen gas to 1178 nm and then frequency doubled to 589.159 nm. The frequency of the alexandrite ring laser is established by a low power, single frequency, cw semiconductor diode laser.
