ABSTRACT:
This invention comprises an optically pumped iodine monofluoride laser operating on the B.sup.3 .pi.(0.sup.+).fwdarw.X.sup.2 .SIGMA..sup.+ system. Ground state IF was produced by the reaction between I.sub.2 and F.sub.2 in an optical cavity which was subsequently optically pumped with a high energy, broadband dye laser to produce lasing energy.
