The invention discloses a high-power
corona preionization
excimer laser, which is characterized in that a
laser discharge cavity is arranged in a shell, a main
discharge electrode is arranged in the
laser discharge cavity, and the main discharge
electrode comprises a main discharge
cathode and a main discharge
anode;
corona rods capable of conducting discharge preionization on working gas are arranged in the laser discharge cavity and located on one side of the main discharge
cathode at intervals, each
corona rod comprises a preionization
electrode and a
ceramic insulator, gaps are formed between the
peripheral face of each
ceramic insulator and the outer side wall of the main discharge
cathode and the inner side wall of the insulation cavity, and the preionization electrodes and the main discharge
anode are grounded. The main discharge cathode is connected with a negative high-
voltage pulse, and when the
excimer laser works, the driving
voltage pulse of the corona rod is the same as the driving
voltage pulse of the main discharge electrode.
Corona discharge preionization is carried out through the corona rod, the main discharge electrode cannot be corroded, discharge dust cannot be generated, and it is ensured that the main discharge electrode carries out uniform
glow discharge to generate high-quality laser.
