Abstract:HF chemical laser with MOPA configuration is a good solution to achieve high output power with high reliability. Kinetic models for HF amplifier are important for prediction and optimization of the performance of MOPA chemical lasers. In this paper, a simplified model for HF chemical laser amplifier is presented. The main processes which are included in the model are: (a) chemical pumping of HF (v=2) and HF (v=1), (b) stimulated transitions and spontaneous emission. (c) relaxation of vibration excited HF molec… Show more
