Near-infrared dye laser pumped by a carbazine-122 dye laser

Efficient generation of a high-power near-infrared dye laser has been achieved by pumping longitudinally with a 5321-Å pumped carbazine-122 dye laser at 7000 Å. A peak power as high as 3.5 MW at 8630 Å and peak powers in excess of 0.5 MW from 7680 to 9170 Å have been obtained.
