Abstract:
An experimental investigation was made of the output parameters of lasers utilizing chlorine fluoride-deuterium and fluorine-deuterium mixtures with CO2 as an active medium component. A qualitative analysis was made of the DF→CO2 transfer characteristics in laser mixtures utilizing ClF5 ClF3, ClF, and F2. It was shown that the DF→CO2 transfer is most efficient in an F2–D2–CO2 mixture.
