A METHOD OF PRODUCING A HIGH INTENSITY BEAM OF COHERENT RADIANT ENERGY COMPRISING THE STEPS OF: NON-REGENERATIVELY PUMPING ENERGY INTO A BODY OF ACTIVE LASER MATERIAL TO ESTABLISH A POPULATION OF IONS FROM BY EXCITING A PREDETERMINED POPULATION OF IONS FROM A GROUND ENERGY STATE TO AN ELEVATED ENERGY STATE FROM WHICH ENERGY TRANSITIONS OF THE IONS TO THE GROUND STATE ARE ACCOMPARIED WITH RADIATION OF ENERGY OF A CHARACTERISTIC FREQUENCY; CONDITIONING A RESONANT CHAMBER INCLUDING THE BODY OF ACTIVE MATERIAL FOR RADIANT ENERGY REGENERATION ALONG A PREDETERMINED AXIS THEREOF WITHIN A FREQUENCY RANGE INCLUDING THE CHARACTERISTIC FREQUENCY, WHEREBY THE RADIANT ENERGY WITHIN THE BODY INCREASES TOWARD A MAXIMUM VALUE; SUBSTANTIALLY FULLY DECONDITIONING THE RESONANT CHAMBER FROM RADIANT ENERGY REGENERATION WHEN THE RADIANT ENERGY REACHES SAID MAXIMUM VALUE; AND COUPLING THE RADIANT ENERGY OUT OF THE RESONANT CHAMBER IN A DIRECTION CORRESPONDING TO THE PREDETERMINED AXIS.
