Abstract: An electric discharge laser with an electrode unit of novel design was developed. An electric discharge system was based on multisectional plate-like electrodes and an automatic UV preionisation that makes it possible to form a highly stable volume discharge. High-efficiency lasing in N₂ and XeF lasers was achieved. A pulse repetition rate up to 200 Hz was realised in the N₂ laser without recourse to gas circulation.
