Abstract
A gaseous mixture comprising iodine, oxygen and fluorine gases is circulated in a closed loop system 16 through a laser cavity 14. The gases in the cavity 14 are pumped by infrared laser radiation 12 from an iodine laser 10. A set of reactions occurs in the cavity 14 resulting in the production of excited, iodine monofluoride, molecules [IF**(B)] which emit laser radiation in the visible spectrum.
