β¦ Synopsis
We wish to report the observation of cw laser action at 10.6 , u in CO, pumped by vibrational energy released in the chemical reaction between C1 atoms and H I molecules. Pumping of the upper CO, laser level is assumed to occur by a mechanism similar to that responsible for the pulsed laser output observed from mixtures of CO, present with chemi-

It has recently been suggested [ll that when l,l,l-trichloroethane is irradiated with a continuous-wave COP laser in the presence of SF6 sensitizer, the decomposition occurs in a molecular manner, viz. CH3CC13 4 CHZ = CCl2 + HC1 rather than by a radical-chain mechanism CHBCC13 CH3 -CC12 + C1 C1 + CH
Continuous-wave (cw) chemically pumped lasing action in the 3to 4-,LA wavelength region without the use of any associated electrical power has been achieved. Continuouswave lasing action in this wavelength region has been demonstrated by Spencer, Jacobs, Mirels, and Gross [l] but with the use of ele
