Laser action at 1315 nm on the I( 2 P1/2) → I( 2 P3/2) transition of atomic iodine has been obtained by a near resonant energy transfer from O2(a 1 ∆) produced using a low–pressure electric discharge. In the electric discharge oxygen-iodine laser (ElectricOIL) the discharge production of atomic oxygen, ozone, and other excited species adds significantly higher levels of complexity to the post–discharge kinetics which are not encountered in a classic purely chemical O2(a 1 ∆) generation system. In this paper, the discharge species output for laser operating conditions are discussed. Spatial measurements of O2(a 1 ∆) and O2(b 1 Σ) are reported, and various methods for the determination of atomic oxygen levels are discussed and compared. The injection of NOX into the system to benefit O2(a 1 ∆) production is investigated. |
