摘要
Using a prototype of dc axially discharged fast-axial-flow CO laser, the output power of 385 W/m in CW operation has been realized at subroom temperature, together with the output of 165 W/m at room temperature, Both dependence of the gas-flow velocity v and the discharge current I-dis on the output power and the effect of v on the oscillation lines are theoretically analyzed, being well consistent with the experimental results.
