A kinetics model and study of CuBr pulsed lasers

A kinetics model including five levels is presented according to the emission spectrum of Cu atom observed from a CuBr laser plasma. The numerically calculated laser power, peak time and wave-form, by employing the experimental data of electron temperature and density, well conform to the measured value. At fixed input power, it is also shown that to change the diffusion coefficient of the buffer gas will change the average temperature of the gas or the initial density of Cu atom, therefore, change the laser power as well
