  • Abstract
    Stabilization of large volume discharges in CO2laser mixtures utilizing thermionic guns as electron sources have been previously reported. These past studies have been confined to the regime of quasi-cw pumping due to the low ( <30 ma/cm2) beam currents available from thermionic cathodes. We report the successful application of a high current density (>300 ma/ cm2) cold cathode electron beam source to stabilize a 5 liter volume CO2laser discharge.
