Abstract:Abstract. An experiment of He gas-contact for generating population inversion in a recombining Ar plasma jet is carried out. Population inversion between Ar I excited states 5s → 4p [1/2] 1 and 5s → 4p[3/2] 1,2 , [5/2] 2,3 is created by helium gas-contact cooling of electrons, whereas it is not created without gas-contact. Ar I lines 1.14 µm, 1.34 µm, and 1.09 µm are strongly enhnced due to the He gas cooling. It is experimentally found that helium gas contact effectively lowers electron temperature of the Ar … Show more
