Claim:
1. A method for producing pulsed laser emissions comprising: providing a pair of opposed electrodes, said opposed electrodes having a gap therebetween, said gap configured to receive and contain a gaseous material, said gaseous material selected to emit photons of at least one predetermined wavelength, applying a voltage potential between said opposed electrodes, said voltage potential being of a level just below a level to overcome a dielectric constant of said gaseous material so that self quenching Trichel pulses occur in said gaseous material, stimulating said gaseous material to emit said photons of at least one predetermined wavelength, orienting one or more reflectors around a region where said Trichel pulses are emitted, and spacing said one or more reflectors from said region where said Trichel pulses are emitted a distance that is a function of said predetermined wavelength so that emitted said photons are returned to said region where said Trichel pulses occur and stimulate emissions of coherent light, using said coherent light in a laser application.
