Laser operation by dissociation of metal complexes: New transitions in As, Bi, Ga, Ge, Hg, In, Pb, Sb, and Tl

Abstract
New laser transitions at 24 wavelengths from 1.152–12.02 μ have been observed from nine metal atoms. Pulsed discharges have been employed for the production of the metal atoms by dissociation of metal halides, hydrides, and alkyls. This technique shows promise for application for pulsed chemical lasers based on electronic transitions in diatomic metal oxides and halides.
