Abstract
A cryogenically cooled 2 cm aperture sealed-off UV or X-ray preionized TEA CO laser was succesfully operated. It was found that X-ray preionization performed better than UV preionization. 17.5 J/ℓ output energy was extracted from a 2x2x40 cm3 discharge volume. The maximum efficiency was 12.6%.
