Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

Results are given for the reconstruction, based on spectral distributions of the amplification factor of the active medium, of the progressive temperature and the upper laser level temperature in the working chamber of a 1.2-kV technological CO2 laser. The obtained data on the temperature distribution in the zone of excitation of the medium enabled us to formulate requirements on organizing the process of laser energy removal and to assess the efficiency of the resonator devices used.
