Amplification process in an excimer laser of dense modes is studied. Rate-equations with wavelength dependence are used to reproduce its spectra. Two extreme cases are tried and in spite of the duration of the output pulse relative to the relaxation time, the short pulse limit is proved to describe well the oscillation process of individual mode.

Key words : excimer, amplified emission spectrum, mode, amplification process
