Abstract:

A self-consistent nonstationary kinetic model of the copper vapor laser active medium ( 510.6, 578.2 nm) has been constructed. The present-day experimental and theoretical facts concerning the possibility of improving the laser's generation characteristics through adding cesium atoms into its active medium are analyzed. The causes of such an improvement are revealed. New data on the laser's efficiency and output power enhancement under effect of Cs additions of optimal concentration are presented.
