Abstract

The results of the use of two types of adaptive mirrors to generate quasi Q-switch pulses of the CO2 laser radiation are presented. The excess ofthe output power in peak above the average level in CW regime was more then 2.5 times. The power of the lasers that were used in the experiments was in the range of 1 Ñ 3 kW CW. Also, the design of the different types of the active conectors used in the experiments is discussed.
