ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for producing laser radiation from an element of a binary (or more complex) compound pumped by microwave energy. The energy causes the compound to dissociate and for the one element of the compound to go to its first excited state, this state being metastable. As the element emits radiation, it reverts to its ground state and recombines to form a compound (which may be the original compound) capable of being dissociated by the microwave energy and repeating the process.
