TL;DR: In this article, an experimental parametric investigation was made of a compact supersonic chemical oxygen (SOCO) laser, which was increased by displacing the point where iodine vapour was added to singlet oxygen from the subsonic to the transonic region of gas flow and by cooling of nitrogen.

TL;DR: In this article, an increase in the jet and gas flow velocities through a reactor to 20 and 30 m s-1, respectively, made it possible to generate O2 at pressures up to 13.3 kPa and with the O2(1Δ) fraction of about 60%.

TL;DR: In this paper, the operation of a chemical oxygen-iodine laser with a drop-jet generator of singlet oxygen, operating at pressures up to 90 Torr, was demonstrated.

TL;DR: In this article, a new concept of obtaining a high total pressure of the active medium of a chemical oxygen -I2 laser (OIL) is proposed and verified, which consists of the alternating vertical arrays of cylindrical nozzles to produce high-pressure nitrogen jets, plane slotted Nozzles for the flow of O2(1Δ) oxygen, and vertical arrays to inject the N2-I2 mixture between the first two streams.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that if a supersonic oxygen-iodine ejector laser is fed by singlet oxygen from a centrifugal bubbling generator operating at a high acceleration of 400g, the laser output power achieves a value of 1264 W at a chemical efficiency of 24.6% for an alkaline hydrogen peroxide flow rate of 208 cm3s-1 and a specific chlorine load of 1.34 mmol s-1 per square centimetre of the bubble layer.
