Results of an investigation of 19 organic dyes pumped by a 1.7-MW discharge-pumped XeCl excimer laser are reported. The dye-laser emission covered a wide wavelength range from 340 n m to 710nm. P-terphenyl shows efficient laser action. The highest energy conversion efficiency exceeds 40% in visible region. In comparison with 250-kW nitrogen laser pumping, higher efficiencies are obtained for most of these dyes in the same dye-laser configuration.
