Preionized discharge for short-wavelength laser
Abstract
Laser uses helium and nitrogen gases at pressure of several atmospheres to produce emissions in visable and ultraviolet regions. Preionization of gases by transverse discharge insures that main discharge is glow instead of arc for proper charge transfer mechanism.
