    (Left) Photo of the Electra electron-beam pumped amplifier (before x-ray shielding was installed). (Right) The Electra diode’s vertical dimension was reduced from 30 cm to 10 cm to provide higher pump intensity for argon fluoride laser (ArF) operation. The specific pump rate for ArF has a lower small signal gain and higher saturation flux than krypton fluoride (KrF). The image shows a time resolved measurement of the emitted light produced by the reduced size electron beam interacting with the laser gas along the laser axis.
