Abstract

Some halide lasers tubes with different volume were used to investigate the geometrical dependence of the output power of laser. An optimum length-to-bore ratio of about 30 was obtained, which gives maximum average output power of halide lasers. The relationship between maximum average output power and geometrical factors of lasers were deduced and compared by than that of copper vapour lasers. So, the straightforward relation was obtained for designing of halide lasers tubes.
