Method for creating, by a chemical route, a CW laser beam of 1.315 micron wavelength

摘要

The method consists in forming gaseous atomic fluorine, in expanding this gas in supersonic nozzles 6, in injecting, just at the outlet of the nozzles, a gas containing molecular iodine and in allowing the gas leaving the nozzles to pass through a resonant optical cavity 17-18. Application to the production of an iodine chemical laser. <IMAGE>
