Abstract
A cooling jacket for parallel triggered flash lamps, particularly useful in optically pumped lasers, is disclosed having an optically clear cylindrical outer envelope within which a glass-insulated trigger wire assembly is integrally formed. The high potentials required for reliable triggering of the flash lamp is substantially reduced by virtue of placing the trigger wire in close proximity to the cooled lamp, and the insulated trigger wire technique significantly increases the useful life of the associated components. The apparatus described is suitable for use with a range of coolant fluids and can accommodate a variety of flash lamps.
