Abstract

IBr as a potential candidate for solar-powered lasers is discussed. Theory and operation of a Br-atom laser obtained by photodissociation of IBr are described. Computed Br* : Br ratios are predicted to increase with pump-photon energy — in good agreement with experiment. Lasing peak power of up to 50 kW at an efficiency of 0.03% with input electrical energy as low as 90 J was demonstrated, and effects of pressure and input energy, on the laser pulse and onset were investigated.
