Overview

Experimental demonstration reports 1220-W power in a room-temperature carbon monoxide laser, indicating practical viability for high-power industrial manufacturing.

Key Points

To scale up a fast-axial-flow, radio-frequency-discharge-excited carbon monoxide laser system to achieve continuous output power exceeding 1 kW at room temperature.
Constructed a fast-axial-flow discharge section consisting of eight discharge tubes excited via capacitive radio-frequency power coupling.
Evaluated scaling characteristics, power stability, beam properties, and temperature dependence between 280 K and 290 K using a xenon-supplemented gas mixture.
Achieved a continuous laser output power of 1220 W at operating temperatures of 280–290 K with the xenon-added mixture.
Demonstrated an electrical conversion efficiency of 7.9% and a specific output power of 1.8 W/cm³.
