Magnetically-Switched, Long-Pulse XeCl Laser
Abstract
Careful shaping of input pulses helps XeCl excimer laser produce lowdivergence, narrow-band light beam. Long-pulse laser achieves narrow-band output by multiple passes of beam through precisely adjusted Fabry-Perot etalons. Pulse-forming network and saturable-inductor switch enable fast pulse rise to peak voltage, followed by long residence at peak.
