· Appl. Phys. Lett.; (United States)
Operation of a cw CO electric-discharge supersonic laser with a pulser-sustainer discharge is described. High-power operation as well as independent control over electron energy and density are demonstrated. Maximum input power achieved to date is 100 kW. The maximum output power is 6 kW or 10% of the sustainer positive column power. Much improved performance appears possible.
