Gas discharge laser device

摘要

A shock-proof gas discharge laser device comprises a cylindrical discharge vessel secured coaxially in a metal tubular holder. The cylindrical discharge vessel is sealed at its two ends with sealed metal end plates provided with supports for multilayer reflectors. The metal end plates are centered in beaker-shaped insulator caps which surround the end plates. The cylinder surface of the caps extend at least partly within the metal tubular holder in contact therewith. The electrical connections of the gas discharge laser are provided in said caps.
