Multijoule TE CO<sub>2</sub> laser using a novel magnetic-spiker sustainer excitation circuit
Simple capacitor charging power supply for a 100-pps laser pulser
A very simple, compact, and inexpensive capacitor charging power supply for a 100-pps laser pulser is described. Unlike dc resonant charging, this power supply does not use a high-voltage filter capacitor, charging choke, and diode
Current-limited capacitor charging power supply for spark-gap-driven high repetition rate laser pulser
A short-circuit protected capacitor charging scheme for a spark-gap driven high repetition rate laser pulser is described. The possibility of using this scheme with a thyratron driven laser pulser is also discussed
