PURPOSE:To output high power laser light by a compact constitution, by accommodating a plurality of discharge tubes, in which laser medium gas is sealed, in a cavity resonator provided with a microwave generator. CONSTITUTION:A microwave is generated by a microwave generator 8 and inputted into a cavity resonator 1. Microwave discharges 10A and 10B are generated in discharge tubes 2A and 2B, in which laser medium gas 3 is sealed. The tubes penetrate the resonator 1 and are accommodated in the resonator. Laser oscillation is generated by total reflection mirrors 11, 14 and 15 and a partial transmitting mirror 12, and laser light 13 is outputted. Since a plurality of the discharge tubes 2A and 2B are accommodated in the resonator 1, the device can be made compact and the high power laser light 13 is obtained. |
