Abstract :
A sealed transversely excited multiatmosphere pulsed laser is reported in which the active media is a combination of three isotopes:12C16O2 ,12C18O2 , and12C16O18O. Lasing action is obtained on all 12 vibrational-rotational bands with continuous tuning observed between line centers at pressures
