摘要
The decay of the density of the metastable Cu (4s2 2D5/2) state following a discharge pulse in a copper-metal-vapor laser was measured with a 510.6-nm cw dye-laser probe. Investigation of the Cu and He density dependence of the decay time constant indicated that particle diffusion was the dominant loss mechanism.
