摘要：
A series of measurements on the high pressure (up to 18 bar) coaxial e-beam pumped Ar/Xe laser were made at high power loading (up to 25 MW/cm2) for various Xe mole fraction in Ar. It was found that the optimum laser gas composition in the system was 0.4% Xe in Ar which was independent of the total gas pressure. At the optimum gas composition the output energy increased with increasing total gas pressure up to 16 bar, but the intrinsic efficiency reached a maximum at the total gas pressure of 8 bar. The experimental results suggest that the heavy particle quenching from Ar at high gas pressure plays a very important role in laser kinetics of the e-beam pumped Ar/Xe laser.
