title: Wide-range amplification of a tunable-diode laser using optically pumped high-pressure NH(3) gas.
abstract: An optically pumped amplifier of high-pressure NH(3) has been successfully applied to wide-range amplification of a PbSnTe tunable-diode laser. A continuously broadened gain width of more than 20 GHz was achieved with a NH(3)-He mixture.
