Abstract

A Master Oscillator - Power Amplifier (MOPA) carbon monoxide laser system emitting nanosecond pulses was developed on the basis of the wide-aperture pulsed electron-beam-sustained-discharge CO-laser facility. Amplification parameters including gain and saturation intensity of amplifying media consisted of gas mixtures CO : He or CO : Ar were measured. The MOPA system emitted a train of nanosecond pulses with peak power up to ~0.1MW on a single spectral line and up to ~0.4MW with multiline spectrum.
