Abstract :
A self-consistent nonstationary kinetic model of the copper vapor laser active medium has been constructed. The present-day experimental and theoretical facts concerning the possibility of improving the laser´s generation characteristics through adding cesium atoms into its active medium are analyzed. The causes of such an improvement are revealed. New data on the laser´s efficiency and output power enhancement under effect of Cs additions of optimal concentration are presented.
