Abstract

With introduction of a semiconductor preionization technique by Richwood,1 the possibility of reducing the complexity, increasing the reliability, and simplifying the construction of TEA lasers became a reality. With proper choice of materials, a very durable, compact, and efficient TEA CO2 laser can be constructed. With the use of a platinum activated stannic oxide catalyst there is also the potential for sealed operation over several million pulses.
