For the gas ratio of CO2: N2: He ≡ 1: 2.5:1, total pressure of 180 mbar and a discharge gap of1.5cm, the output power of 17.2Wis achieved. Also, the highest value of electro-optical efficiency for the laser is estimated about 5.81%. %> http://opsi.ir/article-1-670-en.pdf %P 529-532 %& 529 %! %9 Research %L A-10-1-650 %+ IUST %G eng %@ 1126-3278 %[ 2015
