Abstract

A pulsed gas laser with a plasma cathode and a metal anode in CO₂:N₂:He mixture has been experimentally studied. It was found that the discharge sliding along the surface of a dielectric can be used simultaneously as a UV-preionizer, a plasma cathode, and a laser radiation source in the UV band. In this way, it is possible to design a two-frequency laser emitting in the UV and IR spectral bands, with the capability of controlling the delay between the two laser pulses.
