Abstract

Isotope separation of tritium by multiple photon dissociation process in multiple frequency fields of a TEA-CO2 laser is reported for the first time. A ten-fold improvement in the bulk selectivity was obtained in 8.5 Torr CTF3/CHF3 in the presence of buffer gas at room temperature using 9R(8) to 9R(14) CO2 laser lines compared to single frequency excitation. Investigations of various process parameters such as exciting laser frequencies, pulse energy, sample and buffer gas pressure indicate that this is a promising technique for the separation of tritium.
