摘要 |
Methods and systems for resonant optical amplification are disclosed, including generating electromagnetic radiation from a seed laser; coupling the seed laser electromagnetic radiation into an etalon, wherein the etalon comprises a gain medium comprising a gain, a length, and a roundtrip gain, wherein the gain medium is positioned between a first reflective surface comprising a first power reflectivity and a second reflective surface comprising a second power reflectivity; optically or electrically pumping the gain medium using a flash lamp, an arc lamp, a laser, an electric glow discharge, or an electric current to generate an amplified seed laser electromagnetic radiation; and coupling out the amplified seed laser electromagnetic radiation from the etalon. Other embodiments are described and claimed. |
