Abstract

Laser action has been observed on vibrational-rotational transitions between low lying vibrational levels of HX and DX (X = F, Cl, Br) formed by chemical reactions in an electrically pulsed discharge. HF wavelengths, lying between 2.7 and 3.3 μ, and DF wavelengths, lying between 3.6 and 4.2 μ, are listed and identified.
