文摘A theoretical model is established to describe the thermal dynamics and laser kinetics in a static pulsed exciplex pumped Cs–Ar laser(XPAL).The temporal behaviors of both the laser output power and temperature rise in XPALs with a longtime pulse and multi-pulse operation modes are calculated and analyzed.In the case of long-time pulse pumping,the results show that the initial laser power increases with a rise in the initial operating temperature,but the laser power decreases quickly due to heat accumulation.In the case of multi-pulse operation,simulation results show that the optimal laser output power can be obtained by appropriately increasing the initial temperature and reducing the thermal relaxation time.
