Abstract
A method is proposed to design a hollow-cathode type whitelight laser by applying the cathode fall theory. Several design examples and their oscillation characteristics are presented. The concentric-cylinder-type laser tube is found to be suitable for a long life, high power green laser, but some difficulties exist in its use as a white-light laser. The flute-type laser tube, however, appears to be suitable as a whitelight laser.
