PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize an iodine source having a dissociation velocity which is required for producing excitation atomic iodine and maximizing photon emission thereafter by filling both molecular iodine and iodine monochloride in a mixing nozzle together for starting chain reaction between them. SOLUTION: In a chemical oxygen iodine laser system 50, a singletδ-oxygen generator 16 generates gas flow of singletδ-oxygen gas, a molecular iodine generator 28 generates gas flow of molecular iodine and a monochloride iodine generator 100 generates gas flow of monochloride iodine. A mixing nozzle 22 receives gaseous reactant and emits reactant as mixture flow. When gas flow of monochloride iodine is supplied, the gas flow reacts on gas flow of singletδoxygen and is dissociated to iodine atom and chlorine atom. Then, iodine atom reacts on gas flow of molecular iodine and generates three iodine atoms. Thereafter, atomic iodine further reacts on singletδ-oxygen and generates excitation atomic iodine. The excitation atomic iodine emits photon and enables formation of laser beam. |
