Abstract

The demonstration and characterization of a multi-watt All Gas-phase Iodine Laser (AGIL) are described. A 20-cm subsonic reactor was used to produce NCl(a¹Δ) for a series of parametric studies of the I*(²P_1/2)-I(²P_3/2) small signal gain and extracted power dependence on reactant flow rates and reaction time. The highest measured gain was 2.5x10^-4 cm^-1 and the highest power observed was 18 W.
