Abstract

The 1-D numerical code developed to model the performance of a high power excimer laser is described. The spectral method and the Rigrod equation are basic to the code, which is quite general for application to any two-mirror resonator geometry. The specific features of the code make it appropriate for analyzing laser resonators with high Fresnel numbers and accounting for gain medium nonhomogeneity and instability phenomena, as those arising in discharge pumped lasers.
