Zusammenfassung:An electric discharge gas laser includes in its gas mixture a small amount of low ionization potential substance proportioned so as to provide a ratio of electric field intensity to neutral gas density within an electric discharge plasma which promotes substantially maximum upper laser level excitation in the lasing gas. Specific embodiments include CO2-N2-He-Cs and CO2-Cs-He, in mixing and pre-mixed configurations.
