Abstract:
Results of studying and designing an excitation pulse generator with magnetic compression of pulses by saturated choke for pumping active media of CuBr, Sr, and Ca vapor lasers are presented. A power IGBT transistor is used as a commutator. The generator makes it possible to operate at an excitation pulse repetition frequency of up to 20 kHz. The total average power at all generation lines in a CuBr laser with pumping from this generator is of about 6.0 W; in Sr and Ca lasers, of about 1.3-1.7 W.
Keywords:
metal vapor lasers, excitation pulse generator
