Influence of the laser mixture composition on the existence of the dinitrogen bands
Morávek, Matěj Jan ; Hrachová, Věra (advisor) ; Kudrna, Pavel (referee)
This project studies mixtures of helium, nitrogen and carbon dioxid, widely used in so called CO2 lasers. These lasers are classified as discharge lasers. In the case of low output lasers is often used a DC glow discharge. We can find bands so called first and second positive systems of a dinitrogen molecule in an emission spectrum of the glow discharge. It is possible to deduce energetic balance and a vibrational temperature from these bands. The vibrational temperature was studied by the vibrational spectroscopy of dinitrogen molecule for various discharge currents and pressures and for various distribution of nitrogen in the mixture (we will start with an industrial mixture LASAL 63).

Magnetic field Supported Discharge Based Plasma Sources
Havlíček, Josef ; Kudrna, Pavel (advisor) ; Tichý, Milan (referee)
Main aim of this work was measurement of a floating potential fluctuations in the cylindrical magnetron in classical configuration in neon. Two Langmuir probes were used for measurement of wave vector. The following values were measured: pressure p in range 1-7 Pa, magnetic induction B in range 10-40 mT, discharge current I in range 5-100 mA, discharge voltage U and floating potential Uf. Fluctuations were described by dependencies of power spectral density on frequency S(f) and by histograms S(k,f), where k is wave vector. Several discharge modes were observed in the magnetron. These are characterized by different values of discharge voltage, electric field in positive column, magnitude of the floating potential etc. The discharge conditions, where peaks were observed in spectra, were determined. Only one peak with frequency in range 4-16 kHz was mostly observed. Most of these peaks had zero wave vector in histogram S(k,f), i.e. the floating potential synchronously oscillated in the whole discharge area. For some discharge conditions histograms with non-zero wave vector for noise background were observed.
