Abstract

For the investigation of the possibility of the discharge-pumped Ar ₂* excimer laser action, characteristics of the main-discharge in multi-atmospheric (1-5 atm) pure Ar gas have been investigated using the API (automatically pre-ionized) plasma electrode. It was demonstrated that the uniform pre-ionization formed the uniform main-discharge by the control effect of capacitance C_pr connected with the trigger electrode for preionization and the maximum energy deposition was increased. The control effect of capacitance C_pr was examined the time-dependent main-discharge from two-dimensional simulation of electric field distribution of the API plasma electrode discharge system.
