Abstract

Results of experimental and theoretical investigations of discharge XeCl laser with 30 ns (FWHM) radiation pulse duration are presented. Laser generates the laser energy of 0.35 J with 2.2% total electric efficiency. Calculated laser radiation parameters and discharge parameters have a good agreement with experimental results. Influence of basic plasma-chemical processes in discharge on laser output and efficiency is shown. Maximal laser efficiency relatively pumping power was 3.7%.
