Abstract: | The performance characteristics of the TEM00 2.5-kW silent-discharge-excited, transverse-flow CO2 laser are presented. The silent-discharge excitation is advantageous for a high-quality beam pattern and for pulsed operation and sealed-off operation. Furthermore, the discharge power can be easily increased without limitation due to the instability of the discharge itself |
