Abstract

The Ar₂* excimer production kinetics were initiated by electrons produced in the optical-field-induced ionization (OFI) process. The use of an Ar-filled hollow fiber extended an OFI plasma length up to 30 cm. By use of a 126-nm mirror, the maximum one-pass gain coefficient at 126 nm was observed to be 0.58% cm^-1 at 10 atm Ar.
