Timed Multiple-Laser Array

Abstract

Pulse power, frequency, and shape variable and combined to suit particular applications. Versatile laser system combines high power with high efficiency, long life, and low cost. System consists of array of excimer lasers fired under microcomputer control. When fired in unison, array produces high-power pulse at higher efficiency than otherwise possible. When fired in sequency, array produces pulses at a high rate without unduly stressing components and shortening their lives.
