Abstract
A sealed multiatmospheric CO2 TEA laser is reported in which recombination of principle discharge products CO and O2 is induced by recirculating the laser gas mixture through a room‐temperature oxide catalyst bed. No special gas mixtures are required and the catalyst is compatible with at least some trialkylamine seed gases.Keywords
