Abstract

Estimations are carried out on creation possibilities of all solid state laser sources capable significantly or fully to solve the problem of the universal Aerosol-Gas Lidar System design. Best existing Ho²⁺:ILF and Nd:YAG lasers supplied with LBO, KTA, KTP, BBO, CLBO, DLAP; GaSe, GaSe:In, AgGa_xIn_1-xSe₂, LiInS₂, LiInSe₂, AgGaS₂, AgGa_xIn_1-xS₂, and HgGa₂S₄ frequency converters are considered. The investigation results show development of UV to FIR laser source is really to carry out with efficiencies from one-two up to several tens of percent in several ways.
