Abstract

A low inductance, hermetically sealed, RF shielded feed-through is provided for exciting low impedance discharges associated with high power CO2 slab lasers. The feed-through mechanically obtains RF contact, preferably, at the center of the length of the electrodes that are inserted within the long laser housing, thereby making it easier to obtain a uniform electric field distribution along the length of the electrodes.
