Abstract
Emission of coherent radiation was observed from ZnS which was excited through two‐photon absorption of radiation from a giant‐pulse ruby laser. The spectral width decreased from 75 to 12.8 Å above a threshold ruby‐laser power of 35 MW/cm2. Photographic pictures showed a beam divergence of less than 1°.
