Copper oxide as the metal source in a discharge-heated copper vapor laser

Copper oxide has been used as the lasant in a copper vapor laser producing up to 2 W average power at 12 kHz repetition rate. Operation could be sustained for several hours at over 1 W using radiative cooling to maintain the thermal balance.
