ABSTRACT:
A laser device utilizes a turbojet engine to provide a stimulation source. The turbojet engine is conventional, having a compression section, a fuel injection and igniting section, and an afterburner section. A pair of mirrors are mounted adjacent the hot gaseous stream produced by the turbojet engine. One of the mirrors is fully reflective and the other is partially reflective. The mirrors face each other and are perpendicular to the flow of the gaseous stream, creating a reflection path that is transverse to the flow. The high temperature creates excited molecules in the gaseous stream. This results in photons being emitted, which when striking other excited atoms which emit photons of the same wavelength, create additional photons to combine into a laser beam travelling along a reflection path between the mirrors. A portion of the laser beam passes through the partially reflecting mirror where it strikes an inclined mirror that aims the beam toward a desired target.
