Abstract

A coaxial carbon-dioxide waveguide laser with rf excitation at 96.5 MHz and an output power exceeding 1.3 kW is described. This laser uses a new concept of electrode segmentation for discharge homogenization in addition to a new kind of optical resonator for the coaxial geometry called the toothed mirror resonator.
