ABSTRACT:
A metallic vapor laser apparatus includes a cylindrical discharge tube (31) having an internal space (2), a heat-insulating material (6) encompassing the periphery of the discharge tube (31), and two electrodes (3a) and (3b) having a cylindrical portion coaxial with the discharge tube (31) and disposed at both ends of the discharge tube (31). The internal space (2) are filled with a gas containing the vapor of copper as a laser medium for effecting laser oscillation by the excitation of the filler gas and the discharge. A gas inlet (40) from introducing a buffer gas (G) into the inside is formed at one of the outside position of the two electrodes (3a) and (3b) in the axial direction and gas exhaust ports (33a) for exhausting the buffer gas (G) to the outside are formed in the proximity of both ends of the heat-insulating material (6) so that flow paths in which the buffer gas flows from the side of the internal space (2) to the side of the heat-insulating material are formed between the discharge tube (31) and the electrodes (3a) and (3b).
