  • CO Chain reaction chemical laser
    Patent number: 4131863
    Abstract: This application concerns the operation of a CO chemical laser fueled by carbon monosulfide (CS) and oxygen. These fuels allow the operation of a chain reaction, one step of which is the laser pumping reaction. The chain reaction mechanism reduces the O-atom requirement and increases the optical performance of the laser. The ratio of vibrationally excited CO molecules to the O-atom feed is at least 1.5.
