Abstract

An experimental investigation of a pulsed electrooptically Q-switched radio-frequency partial Z-fold waveguide CO₂ laser with two channels is presented. The heterodyne frequency stability is analyzed in theory. Q-switched pulses are obtained from the partial Z-fold channel. The peak power is 730W and the pulse width is 150 ns. CW laser can output from the single channel. The laser output directions are opposite.
