Abstract

Investigations of the laboratory set-up of a high-power CO2 laser have been carried out to determine the best conditions of performance. The measurement results and sample characteristics are presented and discussed in this paper. Also a brief description of the facility is given. The laser, developed for investigation of beam generation processes and of laser beam interaction with matter is characterized by relative good efficiency of generation of cw radiation power in the range up to 8 kW as well as by its experimental potential that has been confirmed by a number of tests.
