Abstract
A gas laser adapted to produce laser radiation in the far infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum, but adapted, as well, to produce radiation in the infrared, the near infrared, the millimeter and the microwave regions. The laser employs a zig-zag pumping scheme which serves to excite the gas uniformly and thus enhance transfer of pump energy into laser energy.
