Arc-assisted electric discharges in high-pressure carbon monoxide gas mixtures

Journal Article · · IEEE J. Quant. Electron.; (United States)
Continuous arc-assisted electric discharges have been obtained in CO-Ar and CO-N/sub 2/-Ar gas mixtures at pressures of about 0.1 atm and with maximum discharge loadings of 7.9 and 23 kW/mole/s, respectively. The discharge technique appears suitable for adaptation to cw, high-power CO lasers.
