Abstract:
An X-ray preioniser with an electron beam energy density of 0.1 J cm-2 based on a high-voltage (20 – 40 kV) low-pressure glow discharge is developed for repetitively pulsed gas lasers. The electron concentration in the CO2 – N2 – He mixture as a function of the voltage across the preioniser is calculated for titanium and other foils. The preioniser can be operated both in a single-pulse regime and at pulse repetition rates ranging up to hundreds of Hertz. A specific energy yield of 51 J L-1 is achieved in the X-ray preionised pulsed CO2 atmospheric-pressure laser. This preioniser was shown to be efficient for other active media (CO and excimer lasers), which opens up new opportunities for the development of repetitively pulsed gas lasers.
