  • Abstract
    The life and power outputs of sealed CO2lasers with xenon and hydrogen additives have been investigated. The results confirm the usefulness of hydrogen for achieving long life, but suggest that the power increases previously observed with the addition of hydrogen may be due to changes in CO2concentration rather than to relaxation effects.
