CW chemical lasers operation from partially inverted transitions of HCl, HF and DF molecules in subsonic flow
High speed flowing gas system provides uniform mixing in short times compared to flow transit times and carbon dioxide vibrational relaxation times. This system minimizes the effects of surrounding surfaces and provides a uniformly high gain that is independent of dimensions transverse to the flow direction.
