Description

Longitudinal discharge type static carbon dioxide laser
Technical field
The present invention relates to field of lasers, relate in particular to longitudinal discharge type static carbon dioxide laser.
Background technology
At present, for traditional glass discharge vessel longitudinal discharge type static carbon dioxide laser, due to the inactive state of laser gas medium in sealing, therefore to obtain large laser output power, need the length (that is length of increase optical resonator) by increasing discharge tube to realize.But when discharge tube length increases, laser also can be corresponding elongated, thus the use value of losing.
In order to address the above problem, just there is having V-arrangement folded optical resonant cavity, the laser of parallel folded optical resonant cavity and cross folding optical resonator, in order to when having shortened the length of laser, has obtained larger laser output power.Wherein the patent No. is that ZL00116695.6, name are called the V-arrangement planar-cross triplex folded resonant cavity of 66 carbon oxide laser devices " patent V-arrangement folded optical resonant cavity technology is disclosed, the utility model patent that the patent No. is 200620108059.3, name is called " connected carbon-dioxide laser tube " discloses parallel folded optical resonant cavity technology.Above-mentioned two pieces of patents are all by take the folding increase of obtaining laser output power that discharge tube carries out as unit.
But this folded optical resonant cavity has problems equally.For example: when adopting V-arrangement folding, because the material of discharge tube is generally glass, therefore the angle between two adjacent discharge tubes can not be too little; When adopting parallel folding, between two adjacent discharge tubes, must keep certain spacing, so that the speculum that is 45 degree angles by two and two discharge tube light paths by between two discharge tubes lateral light paths connect, the same like this increase that can cause longitudinal discharge type static carbon dioxide laser volume.In addition, structurally, the discharge tube of take folds as unit above-mentioned two kinds of prior aries, and each discharge tube all needs to configure 1 pair of electrode, comes injecting electric power to carry out discharge excitation.As can be seen here, in overall structure, still there are the shortcomings such as compact not, in application, affected the universal of this kind of laser.
