Numerical optimization of the electrical characteristics of an EUV laser on 3$p$–3$s$ transition in neonlike argon ions in low-inductance capillary-type discharge
Abstract:
Electrical characteristics of low-inductance capillary-type discharge have been determined by numerical model calculations, which ensure high efficiency of energy supply to a plasma column with an aspect ratio of 1: 100. The EUV argon laser based on this discharge provides a gain of $g^{+}>$ 1 cm$^{-1}$ on the operating transition and ensures single-pass spontaneous lasing with $g^{+}l>$ 25 (where $l$ is the active medium length).
