Abstract

We have investigated the characteristics of a new electrode system developed for fast transvers-flow CO2 laser. The bar type electrode system makes it possible to reduce the number of electrodes and to increase the input discharge energy as compared with the conventional pin type electrode system. The oscillation mode at low laser output power is dramatically improved by adjusting the electrode arrangement.
