Abstract

The conditions of forming the spatial homogeneous volume discharges in N₂:He; Xe:He, Kr:He and Ar:He mixtures at total pressures of P equals 0.5 - 1.5 Atm and at pulse repetition rates up to F equals 7 kHz are investigated. The influence of macro- and microinhomogeneities of the volume discharge plasma on the maximum pulse repetition rates and average radiation power of TEA-lasers are determined. A maximum value of the average radiation power of P_AV equals 20 W on molecular nitrogen ((lambda) equals 337 nm) and P_AV equals 28 W on transitions of neutral atoms of Xe ((lambda) equals 1 - 5 micrometers ) are obtained.
