Novel high-voltage hollow cathode device for gas lasers

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The efficiency of cw hollow cathode lasers is connected to the possibility of operating the discharge at high-current densities and increased voltage. Unfortunately, in a conventional hollow cathode discharge some limitations exist due to discharge instabilities and arcing at high currents. These problems could hardly be avoided in the high-voltage hollow cathode discharge proposed in Ref. 1.
