ABSTRACT:
A laser system utilizing a fluid as the excitatory medium for stimulated light emission, wherein the fluid is supplied from a sorbent-based fluid storage and dispensing system coupled in fluid-supplying relationship with the laser apparatus. The laser may be an excimer laser utilizing as the laser working fluid a rare gas halide compound such as fluorides and/or chlorides of krypton, xenon and argon, as well as fluorine and/or chlorine per se. The laser system may alternatively be a far infrared gas laser utilizing a gas such as CO.sub.2, N.sub.2 O, CD.sub.3 OD, CH.sub.3 OD, CH.sub.3 OH, CH.sub.3 NH.sub.2, C.sub.2 H.sub.2 F.sub.2, HCOOH, CD.sub.3 I, CH.sub.3 F, and C.sup.13 H.sub.3 F. Laser systems of the present invention may be utilized in applications such as materials processing, measurement and inspection, reading, writing, and recording of information, holography, communications, displays, spectroscopy and analytical chemistry, remote sensing, surveying, marking, and alignment, surgical and medical applications, plasma diagnostics, laser weaponry, laser-induced nuclear fusion, isotope enrichment and atomic physics.
