Excimer lasers operating at high-average powers are becoming important for materials processing applications, A long pulse excimer laser with automatic spark preionization which provides a pulse energy of 1 J with an optical pulse length of 200 ns FWHM for XeCl is described. Successful scaling of the repetition rate to 220 pps is discussed along with requirements for gas flow.
