Helium-Neon Laser I Construction, Working I Advantages and ...
The Helium-neon gas laser system consists of a glass tube of nearly one meter in length. The gain medium in the He-Ne laser is a mixture of helium (90%) at 1 mm of Hg pressure and neon (10%) at 1/10 mm of Hg pressure filled in the glass tube. The reflecting mirrors M1 and M2 are fixed at the end of the tube.
