| Description | A stabilization technique for the production of homogeneous gas discharge at high pressures has been developed. The technique is based on photo-pre-ionization from a corona-type surface-discharge. It was possible to develop a number of laser systems based on this stabilization principle, which exceeded the performance of conventional systems in many respects. This paper provides a summary of the most important properties and principles of the surface discharges. Four laser systems utilizing this stabilization method are also discussed. ’n Tegniek is ontwikkel om homogene gasontladings by hoë drukke te bewerkstellig deur van foto-preïonisasie vanaf ’n oppervlakkorona-ontlading gebruik te maak. Hierdie metode van ontladingstabilisering het gelei tot die ontwikkeling van ’n aantal gepulseerde lasersisteme wat konvensionele sisteme in baie opsigte oortref het. ’n Kort opsomming van die belangrikste beginsels en eienskappe van die oppervlakontladings word gegee en vier lasersisteme wat op hierdie tegniek gebaseer is, word bespreek. | |
