Repetition-rate scaling of a kinetically enhanced copper-vapor laser

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The output power of a kinetically enhanced Cu-vapor laser is shown to increase linearly with pulse repetition frequency to an experimental limit of 22 kHz. Output power of >150 W has been produced by a medium-scale (38-mm diameter, 1.55-m long) device operating at 22 kHz.
