Abstract
Transitions between the 4f25d configuration and the lower levels of the 4f3 configuration in Nd3−:YLF and Nd3+:LaF3 have been shown to be promising candidates for UV and VUV lasers.1,2 Hitherto these lasers have been pumped by exotic VUV F2 lasers or VUV fluorescence front dimers excited by electron beams.
