Abstract

Formation of high quality laser beam and the reasons of wave front distortion in electric discharge XeCl laser had been investigated. The influence of macro and micro-inhomogeneities in active volume on radiation divergence is discussed. Possibility of amplification of diffraction limited laser beam practically without distortion is shown.
