  • Abstract
    CO and CO2laser action are achieved by organic molecule electrochemical oxidation in a directly excited, subsonically flowing, CW gas laser. The laser spectrum shifts from 5μ (due to CO) to 10.6 μ (due to CO2) as the cooling temperature is increased from 77 K to -40°C. Both CO and CO2are reaction products formed by the electrochemical oxidation of CH4, C3H3, C2H2, or HCHO.
