Abstract
A method for manufacturing a stripline laser which is composed of a plurality of constituent parts assembled together with at least two of the parts being soldered to one another, characterized by the step of soldering being by a soft solder, subsequently cleaning the interior of the assembled laser by subjecting it to the influence of a plasma treatment, continuing the plasma treatment to passivate the interior surfaces of the assembled parts of the laser, and limiting the temperature of the parts joined together by the soft solder to, at most, 150.degree. during each of the plasma treatments. The method is particularly suitable for utilization to form a CO.sub.2 stripline laser, and includes adding a CO.sub.2 gas during the second or continued plasma treatment for passivating the surfaces by saturating them with CO.sub.2.
