Demonstration of an iron fluorescence lidar operating at 372     nm wavelength using a newly-developed Nd:YAG laser

We report on the development of a pulsed neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser operating at a 1116   nm wavelength. Because the third harmonic is within a few gigahertz of the 372   nm absorption line of iron, this laser system represents an alternative to alexandrite ...
