Abstract

Un láser (10) que comprende: Un cuerpo (16) cerámico que define una cámara en esta, que contiene un gas láser, el cuerpo (16) cerámico incluye una pluralidad de paredes (28, 30) paralelas que definen parcialmente una primera sección (12) de la cámara, la primera sección (12) de la cámara define una guía de onda, el cuerpo cerámico incluye además una pluralidad de paredes (32, 34) oblicuas que definen parcialmente una segunda sección (14) de la cámara, la segunda sección (14) de la cámara se conforma para modificar un perfil transversal de un haz (38) láser que viaja a través de la segunda sección (14) de la cámara, Un primer espejo ((22) ubicado adyacente al primer extremo de la cámara, Un segundo espejo (24) ubicado adyacente al segundo extremo de la cámara, el segundo extremo es opuesto al primer extremo, el primer y segundo espejos (22, 24) crean un resonador en la primera sección (12) de la cámara, y Una pluralidad de electrodos (18, 20) ubicado por fuera del cuerpo (16) cerámico y adyacente a la pluralidad de paredes (28, 30) paralelas de tal manera que solamente el gas láser dentro de la primera sección (12) de la cámara se excita cuando se aplica una señal de excitación a la pluralidad de electrodos (18, 20) en donde la primera y segundas secciones (12, 14) de la cámara se extiende adyacentemente entre el primer y segundo extremos de la cámara, y en donde el haz (38) láser entra a la segunda sección (14) desde la primera sección (12) en el primer extremo de la cámara y sale de la segunda sección (14) en el segundo extremo de la cámara.
