Emission of an oxygen-iodine chemical laser in the visible range
Abstract
Luminescence spectra of the active medium of the oxygen-iodine chemical laser are presented in the range 600-700 nm for different iodine concentrations. It is suggested that the red luminescence observed for small ion concentrations is produced by the ICl molecule. A possible mechanism for the formation of excited ICl molecules is proposed.
