  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. Investigations of the influence of halogens in the buffer gas of high temperature copper vapour lasers led to the recent development of kinetically enhanced devices using H/sub 2/-HCl-Ne buffer gas mixtures. Kinetically enhanced copper vapour lasers (or KE-CVLs) have performance characteristics that far exceed those of conventional CVLs.
