Pulsed and cw operation of helium-water vapor laser at 28 µm
Abstract
The operating characteristics of a water vapor-helium laser working at 28 microns are presented. A comparison is made between power output in continuous and pulsed operation for various gas mixtures and discharge currents for the same laser cavity.
