Abstract: | In this paper, a novel excitation method named as sequential discharge is realized in a two-module TEA CO2 laser by using a special rotating spark gap. It is demonstrated that the repetition rate and the output power of a laser can be multiplied through this method. For the two-module TEA CO2 laser in the experiment, the repetition rate is 300 Hz and the average power is 356 W when each module discharges; the repetition rate is 600 Hz and the average power is 713 W when the two modules discharge sequentially. |
