Abstract
An experimental and theoretical investigation was made of the small-signal gains of lines in the second sequence band, and of the temperature of the asymmetric ν3 mode of the CO2 molecule in a TEA CO2 amplifier as a function of the composition of the CO2–N2–He mixture. The optimal partial pressures of the component were determined. In a TEA CO2 amplifier with ultraviolet preionization provided by auxiliary lateral discharges it was found that the maximum gain of ~0.01 cm-1 for the 10P(19) line of the second sequence band was achieved in a CO2:N2:He = 1:1:3 mixture.
