Spectroscopic diagnostics of high-current discharges in UV-VUV excimer lasers

  • 1. Univ. of Tartu (Estonia). Institute of Physics

Description

The aim of this work is spectroscopic diagnostics of a discharge in a new compact 'sealed-off' excimer laser. Spatial-time behaviors of the main excited atomic and ionic species, gas temperature and electron density were monitored with ns-gated ICCD camera from spontaneous emission spectra of the discharge. At increased current density cathode hot spots appear after the end of the pumping pulse because of delayed explosion of overheated emission centers on the cathode surface. (author)
