The advantages of the $CO_2$ laser are offset by the delay in laser wound healing secondary to thermal damage. To minimize the undesirable thermal damage of the $CO_2$ laser, investigators have developed technical advances in the delivery system of the laser energy. This study compared tissue healing of the continuous and the pulsed modes $CO_2$ laser wounds in an animal surgery model. Five healthy Landrace and Yorkshire mixed breeds of both genders were used (45-51 kg, 4-6 months old, three males and two females). A full thickness wound of skin ($2{\times}2{\times}2cm^2$) was made over on the each pig's both sides of dorsal midline at 0, 7, 14, and 18 days. The wounds created at 18, 14, 7 and 0 days were named post-wounding day (PWD) 3, 7, 14 and 21, respectively. In each pig, one wound (left side) was treated pulsed $CO_2$ laser and the other wound (right side) was treated continuous wave $CO_2$ laser. Each wound was closed with two interrupted suture of 3-0 sutures. At 21 days after initial wounding, each wound was taken for histological evaluations. The degrees of reepithelialization were performed more prominently in the pulsed mode group than in the continuous mode group. The degrees of granulation were greater significantly in pulsed mode group than those in the continuous mode on PWD 3 (p < 0.05). The degrees of fibroblasts in the pulsed mode group were greater significantly in comparison to those in the continuous mode group on PWD 7, (p < 0.05). In conclusion, reepithelialization, granulation and fibroblasts in the pulsed mode group were greater markedly in comparison to those in the continuous mode group. It was considered that pulsed mode $CO_2$ laser was more suitable for the skin incision than the continuous mode $CO_2$ laser.

A Continous wave tunable $CO_2$ laser which is the slow axial flow type was construccted for the optical pumping of methyl alcohol ($CH_3OH$) laser. The reflective grating of 100 grooveslmm and 10.6$\mu\textrm{m}$ blaze wavelength was used to select wavelength. We have investigated continous outpu: power characteristics, and then have compared tuned output power profile with the gain curve of $CO_2$ laser. The optimum condition for maxium power was found at the gas mixing ratio 1 : 3 : 10 for $CO_2: N_2$ and He. under this condition the flow rate, pressure of lasing gas and discharge current are 9.5 llmin. 14 torr, and 55 mA respectively. The maxium output power was 55 Wlm. Output power of single wavelength operation was measured on 60 individual rotation vibration transitions in the P and K branches of the 9.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ band and 10.4$\mu\textrm{m}$ band in $CO_2$. The output power profile obtained from each band is well consistent with the gain curve of $CO_2$ laser and maxium tuned output power was 20 watt.

Various kind of laser had been used on addition to endoscope for obstetrics and gynecology, gas laser such as CO2 laser had been used mainly much in laparoscope surgical operation mainly Thermal effect of beam displays other result different component parts of cellular tissue and different close of a marketplace of laser beam and priority solidification of temperature increase consists in cellular tissue, and cutting or carbonization process happens and evaporation by breakdown of cellular tissue happens more than $300^{\circ}$. <중략> Ostabilization of pulse transformer by high tension output module of CO2analog laser for obstetrics and gynecology that accomplish marks of honor kind switching and accuracy is required, and stabilize with laser output applying Turn-off in existent hard switching forward converter, on city happened switching damage, damage increase of output diode station recovery special quality, parasitism shock, design and result that manufacture, brought result that improve than existing product. Will be bought to get into superior result if supplement as systematic late.

펄스형 $CO_2$레이저는 적외선 영역인 10.6 $mu extrm{m}$ 파장의 매우 안정된 고출력 펄스를 방출시킬 수 있으므로 산업용, 군사용, 의료용, 각종 물리.화학의 기초 연구용 등의 광범위한 응용 분야에서 각광을 받고 있다. 특히 금속의 정밀절단, 심용접에서는 수 십 Hz로부터 수 kHz의 펄스 출력이 필요하다. 펄스방식은 Normal Pulse와 Super Pulse로 크게 나눌 수 있다. Normal Pulse의 경우에는 Pulse의 파고치가 연속파의 파고치와 동일하기 때문에 펄스시의 평균 출력은 연속파의 경우보다 낮다. Super Pulse의 경우에는 Pulse 파고치를 연속파의 파고치보다 훨씬 높게 할 수 있으므로 평균 출력은 낮지만 첨두 출력이 높아서 유리 등 세라믹 재료의 가공에 널리 사용된다$^{(1)}$ (중략)

화학레이저는 화학연료의 반응에서 생성되는 막대한 화학에너지를 이용하여 레이저를 발생시키며, 반응하는 화학연료의 양에 따라 수천 kW의 고출력을 낼 수 있는 가장 강력한 레이저이다. 화학레이저인 Chemical Oxygen-Iodine Laser(COIL)는 염소기체(Cl$_2$)를 염기성 과산화수소수 용액과 반응시켜 고에너지의 여기산소(O$_2$($^1$$\Delta$))를 생성시키고 여기산소가 다시 요오드 원자와 반응하면서 1.3 $mu extrm{m}$ 파장의 레이저를 발생시킨다.(1)-(2) 이와같은 COIL 레이저는 발진효율이 높고 포화 강도가 높아 수십 kW 급의 고출력이 용이하게 이루어 질 수 있으며 광섬유 전송시 광손실이 가장 적어 레이저 빔의 원격 전송에 의한 재료가공에 적합한 레이저이다. 가공용레이저로 많이 사용하는 $CO_2$ 레이저에 비해 발진 파장이 짧으므로 재료의 광흡수율이 높아 일반 산업분야의 용접/절단에서 기존의 $CO_2$ 레이저를 대체할 것으로 기대되는 상용성이 큰 레이저이다.(3)-(4) 또한 COIL은 우수한 집속 특성을 유지하면서도 고출력의 개발이 가능하다. 이미 외국에서는 비록 단시간 동안 동작하지만 수백 kW급이 실현되었으며 수천 kW 급 고출력 항공기탑재형 COIL 이 수백 km의 거리에서 미사일을 요격하기위해 지금 개발중에 있다.(5) 일반 산업용 광섬유에 의해 쉽게 전송되는 파장인 1.315 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 인 수십 kW 급 COIL 은 조선 등의 중공업산업용 및 원자력 제염/해체분야에서 다용도 기술로서 광범위하게 사용될 것이다. COIL은 다양한 재료와 다양한 두께의 구조물 절단, 표면처리 그리고 용접에도 이용될 수 있다. COIL의 산업화는 빠르게 발전하고 있으며 산업용으로써 장시간 연속사용이 가능한 20-30 kW급 시설이 곧 개발될 것으로 기대된다. 따라서 개발될 고출력 화학레이저가 앞으로 원자력시설의 해체시 작업자의 안전성 향상에 크게 기여할 수 있게 되었다.(6) 여기서는 화학레이저인 COIL 장치와 기본적인 원리, 그리고 염소유량에 따른 출력특성등을 살펴보기로 하겠다.

We propose a high voltage dc-dc converter for CW(continuous wave) $CO_2$ laser system using a current resonant half-bridge inverter and a Cockcroft-Walton circuit. This high voltage power supply includes a 2-stage voltage multiplier driven by a regulated half-bridge series resonant inverter. The inverter drives a step-up transformer and the transformer secondary is applied to the voltage multiplier. Thus, it has high efficiency because of the less switching losses by virtue of the current resonant half-bridge inverter, and also compact size, small parasitic capacitance in the transformer stage owing to the low number of a winding turn of the step up transformer secondary by combining with Cockroft-Walton circuit. We could be obtained the maximum laser output power of 44 W and the maximum system efficiency of over 16 %.
