Abstract
Optimization of the pumping regime and of the resonator parameters, as well as the correct choice of easily ionizable additives to the active mixture of a CO2 laser excited by an SSVD ensured a specific output energy of 51 J/l and a conversion efficiency of electrical into optical energy of 22 % in an active medium volume of 16 l.
