Chemical laser utilizing the branched-chain stage of the oxidation of carbon disulfide
E. B. Gordon, S. E. Nalivaĭko, V. S. Pavlenko
Abstract:
It was predicted theoretically that a mechanism of oxidation of carbon disulfide established earlier should be used to achieve lasing as a result of vibrational-rotational transitions in CO molecules formed during the explosive branched-chain stage of the CS2+O2 reaction. This conclusion was confirmed experimentally: a laser utilizing branching of chemical chains was constructed for the first time. Simultaneous firing of CS2–O2 mixtures diluted with helium of nitrous oxide (corresponding to a "peninsula" of chain ignition) was performed by an ultraviolet radiation pulse. Lasing appeared at the leading edge of the fast oxidation stage and it lasted for ~ 1 msec. The output energy of the laser was 20 mJ and the gain was > 20%/m.
