Abstract

A computer model was used to simulate the discharge kinetics and evolution of the optical gain and intracavity laser field intensities in a medium sized kinetically enhanced vapor laser (KE-CVL). The halogen donor species HCl, Cl, Cl₂ and Cl and associated collision processes were included in the kinetics scheme for the KE-CVL in addition to the 25 species representing the Cu-Ne-H₂ mixture. The influence of these halogen species on the plasma kinetics during both the excitation period and afterglow phase in the KE-CVL were determined in relation to how they ultimately affect the development of the optical gain in the active medium and subsequent build-up of the intracavity laser fields.
