Abstract

We observed significant amplification of the argon excimer laser emission at 126 nm initiated by femtosecond high-intensity laser-produced electrons. By introducing an optical feedback with a vacuum ultraviolet multilayer mirror, the small signal gain coefficient of 2.3 cm^-1 was evaluated at 126 nm.
