The advent of high-pressure CO2:N2O gas mixture lasers involves a significant increase of the output pulse power up to multiterawatt level due to laser pulse shortening down to few picoseconds and even to hundreds of femtoseconds. The mid-IR spectral region is attractive because at the relatively low continual absorption the atmosphere can linearly transfer light power up to several terawatts. Further increase of laser power gives rise to nonlinear losses of propagating radiation, which is mostly due to ionization and optical breakdown of air against the background of Kerr self-focusing and filamentation of a laser beam.","PeriodicalId":191027,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference Laser Optics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128531274","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
