Non Equilibrium Excimer Laser Kinetics

  • Chapter
Nonequilibrium Processes in Partially Ionized Gases

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 220))

Abstract

Excimer lasers with wavelengths in the visible and UV regions have been extensively studied in these last years1–8 for their importance in many technological applications. Those lasers are mostly formed by a combination between a rare gas and an halogen containing molecule. We report here the description of a self-consistent model which describes the temporal evolution of an excimer laser mixture under the action of the voltage applied to the electrodes of the laser cell and provided by an electrical external circuit. The laser mixture we considered Ne-Xe-HC1 (0.95–0.044–0.006) is used in the experimental device, (10 litem volume, X Ray preionization) setted at the ENEA Laboratories of Frascati9.
