Abstract :
A low-pressure Ar arc discharge (length = 1.7 m, diameter = 12 mm) was used for continuous high-power generation of UV laser lines ( nm, 363.8 nm). Low-loss mirror coatings and stabilization of the discharge with a magnetic field enabled a maximum output power of 40 W to be achieved from the combined lines.
