Description

The simulation results of nonlinear propagation properties in the CO2 laser system using a simulation model of the SF6 saturable absorbers and the CO2 laser amplifiers agree well with the experimental results. The technical problems of the simultaneous irradiation of multibeams to a target are also discussed
