Summary :

The pulsed HF chemical laser of the HI/SF6 system can be excited to the sixth HF vibrational level, and the spectra of this system coincide with those of the HF chemical laser of the H2/F2 system. The pulsed HF chemical laser of the HI/SF6 system can therefore be used as an oscillator or a preamplifier for the power-amplifier of the H2/F2 system. The power of a pulsed HF chemical laser of the HI/SF6 system is said to be poor in comparison with other mixed systems, but the use of a Blumlein-discharge circuit to initiate the electric discharge proved to be effective. An electrical efficiency of 3.9% for a pulsed HF chemical laser of the HI/SF6 system was obtained, and both the electrical efficiency and the output energy of this laser system were comparable with those of the HI/SF6 system.
