Abstract:
The influence of the gas-discharge parameters on the specific laser output energy and efficiency of a transversely excited copper vapor laser was investigated. For a Cu–Ne mixture, two optimum buffer-gas pressures were found. A maximum specific output energy of 55 μJ/cm3 was obtained at an efficiency of 1%. The optimum pulse repetition frequencies for lasing were determined.
