Threshold power density measurements for electron-beam sustained discharge excitation of XeF and KrF
Journal Article

· Appl. Phys. Lett.; (United States)
Threshold power densities for electron-beam-stabilized discharge excitation of XeF and KrF lasers are reported for Ar+Kr+F/sub 2/ and Ar+Xe+NF/sub 3/ gas mixtures at 1 atm. Stable discharges were obtained with these gas mixtures for times greater than 0.5 ..mu..sec with lasing pulse width as long as 0.5 ..mu..sec. An analysis of data for several different pump power densities is presented which indicates that the threshold pump power density varies inversely with the cavity buildup time.
