Abstract :
The laser energy output of a double-pulsed copper chloride laser has been found to be a logarithmic function of the circuit inductance over the range of 1 to 12 μH. The initial current rise was inversely proportional to the circuit inductance so that the laser energy was also a logarithmic function of the initial current rise.
