Abstract

The paper presents the construction and results of investigations of a new waveguide CO₂ laser in which the synchronization of beams arising from four independent waveguide channels was realized. Thanks to that, the unitary output power of more than 1 W/cm of length, a value which is greater than that in conventional, sealed-off CO₂ lasers, has been obtained. The development of transverse, rf discharge, has increased the efficiency and reliability of the laser head and has decreased the power supply dimensions.
