Popis: Injection locking is investigated as a means for control of optical pulse duration and polarization in a XeF laser. Intense short‐pulse generation in the ultraviolet is achieved by injection of a low‐level 1‐ns optical pulse into a XeF oscillator. Control of laser output polarization by injection locking is demonstrated and studied as a function of injected signal level. Enhancement of XeF electric‐discharge laser efficiency by injection pulse ’’priming’’ is observed.
