Abstract

The overview of spectral properties of the CO₂ laser radiation in modern RF excited waveguide, multi-waveguide, and slab-waveguide laser structures is given. Spectral phenomena in lasers operated in a pulse regime are also demonstrated. The influence of specific spectral features of the CO₂ laser on designing the high-brightness and spectrally pure laser devices is shown.
