Abstract :
The output properties of a pulsed He-Kr+ ion laser have been investigated as a function of partial gas pressure and discharge current. Variations of the time delay between the peak of current and laser power suggest that population inversion is not only ruled by upper-level pumping but also by the decay of lower laser level.
