摘要：
In order to investigate the possibility of laser action on the VUV Ar-2* excimer band in a pulsed electrical discharge, a discharge system which consists of four discharge units placed in a row on the optical axis has been designed. Strong emission in the VUV Ar-2* excimer band has been observed in the region 120 to 140 nm, and an optical gain of about 0.006/cm at 126 nm has been observed under the condition of Ar pressure of 3.5 atm and a charging voltage of 20 kV.
