Abstract
The construction and operation of an argon laser suitable for long pulse, low duty cycle operation is described. The laser uses a potassium activated alumina cold cathode, Pyrex bore with ceramic liner, ballast tank at the anode, and a single layer magnetic field coil. Operation at pulses several milliseconds long and at a duty cycle of the order of
has been achieved for the 1-W output (5145 Å, TM00 mode) laser.
