Etude Experimentale d'un Laser CO2 TEA avec Resonateurs Instables (An Experimental Study of CO2 TEA Laser with Unstable Resonators),

Abstract

This paper reports on an extensive parametric investigation of a TEA-CO2 laser operated in an unstable confocal resonator. The coupling mirror diameter and the cavity magnification giving the optimum use of the laser medium for different applications are experimentally determined.
