ABSTRACT:
A system employing multiple, upper excitation levels in a technique for isotopically selective ionization to improve the ionization efficiency. In a technique which employs laser radiation to excite particles with isotopic selectivity, excitation is produced to a plurality of excited states below the ionization level with the result of increasing the number of available excited particles for ionization and thereby increasing the ionization cross-section for improved system efficiency.
