We have demonstrated the production of vacuum ultraviolet argon excimers in optical-field-induced (OFI) plasmas produced by a high-intensity IR laser. The optical amplification of the argon excimer at 126 nm was also reported. However, the temporal and spatial evolutions of the OFI plasmas have not been evaluated. We observed temporal dynamics of the OFI Ar plasma by using a time-resolved laser interferometer.
