Abstract

Results of an investigation of the characteristics of a transverse discharge with prebreakdown ionization multiplication of electrons in the working media of N2(C-B)-and SF6/H2 chemical HF-lasers are reported. The conditions of initiation of a stable volume discharge in the discharge gap with low homogeneity of the electrical-field distribution are investigated. A quasisteady plasma based on N2 molecules with a radiation duration of ≤0.5 μsec at transitions of the 2+-system and a homogeneous discharge in a SF6/H2=(3–7)/(1–2) kPa mixture, which is of interest for preionization of the working medium of an HF-laser by the predischarge method, are obtained.
