Amplification of 0.6-, 1.6-, and 100-ns pulses has been measured in a test amplifier up to 3 atm. total pressure and a small signal gain ranging from 5.5 to 19 dB. A simple model based on a Frantz and Nodvick formulation provides good agreement with the experimental results for 0.6–1.6-ns pulse duration and can be useful for an iodine laser system design.
