The energy output and spectral characteristics of DCM-propylene carbonate dye laser system pumped by XeCl excimer laser have been measured. The results obtained indicate that DCM-propylene carbonate dye laser system shows a lower energy output and width frequency-tuning range as compared to the case of using dimethylsulfoxide as solvent, which is expectable f romcomparison of the fluorescence parameters of DCM in both solvents.
