Abstract
A chemical oxygen-iodine laser (COIL) generates the emission of radiation at λ = 1.315 µm from the atomic iodine transition 2P1/2−2P3/2. The upper laser level is pumped as a result of a fast quasi-resonant energy transfer from the oxygen molecules in the state O2(1Δ) to the iodine atom:
The iodine atoms are formed in the mixing of singlet oxygen with molecular iodine during the process
