ABSTRACT:
The direct electrical discharge excitation, pulsed or CW, of a laser gas medium consisting of CO.sub.2 :N.sub.2 :He present in the approximate ratio of 1:2:25 at a total gas pressure of between approximately 8 and 12 Torr and an operating temperature between approximately 125.degree. K. and 150.degree. K. supports 16 micron laser radiation on the 02.sup.0 0.fwdarw.01.sup.1 0 CO.sub.2 vibrational transition, and 14 micron laser radiation on the 10.sup.0 0.fwdarw.01.sup.1 0 CO.sub.2 vibrational transition.
