Abstract

Output radiation performances of XeCl laser having 5.5 1 active medium volume depending on electric circuit parameters, intensity and uniformity of preionization are researched. The maximum output radiation energy of 7 J and pulse duration of 160 ns were obtained only in the presence of modulation of discharge current. It is shown that first of all laser efficiency depend on preionization homogeneity and not from its intensity. The largest laser output realized only in case the small percentage of Xe in gas mixture (≤0.25%).
