Abstract: A CO2 laser in which zeolite is present and in which water vapor is incorporated in the zeolite. The temperature of the zeolite is determined by the produced laser beam, for example, by providing the zeolite in one of the mirrors. The amount of water vapor released by the zeolite is dependent on the temperature of the zeolite, and there is a water vapor pressure at which the efficiency of the stimulated emission is at a maximum. The zeolite is so placed that it derives the proper heat from the beam at maximum efficiency to give off the proper amount of water vapor to maintain this efficiency. As a result of this, the water vapor can remain adapted to the optimum operational pressure for a longer period of time.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for producing stimulated infrared emission, an iraser, by means of an electric discharge in a gas mixture which mainly consists of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, helium and water vapour and in which the gas mixture is in contact with a quantity of zeolite which is partly saturated with water. The invention furthermore relates to an electric discharge tube for such a device.
