✦ Synopsis

Design and construction of a high repetition rate low
average power TEA CO~2~ laser with ultra violet pre ionization is
presented. Replacing thyratron with a high voltage semiconductor
switch and magnetic pulse compressor considering the highest peak
power achievable is investigated. When using semiconductors as
main switch of laser excitation circuit the output energy and
laser power is lower about 5–10% relative to thyratron
excitation circuit but the sealed off operation of laser is more
uniform.
