ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a technique for producing vapors of metals in containment vessels that experience the melting temperature but not the boiling temperature of the metal being vaporized. The metal is maintained in molten pools by the containment vessel. Pumping means such as wicks transfer the metal from the pools to a higher temperature region internal of the containment vessel where the liquid metal is boiled into a vapor. The generation of laser radiation from an excited metal vapor produced in this manner is also disclosed.
