Continuous 250 watt argon ion laser
Abstract
We report upon a continuously operating argon ion laser with an output power of 250 W on the visible and 17 W on the ultraviolet emission lines. The discharge tube was operated at more than 200 kW input power without degradation and time limitation Increase in laser power seems possible.
