Investigation of concept of efficient short wavelength laser. Quarterly progress report, 1 October 1977--31 January 1978

Description

The experimental apparatus which was designed to study the wavelength-selected photolysis of gaseous azides has been completely assembled, and much component testing and calibration has been done. Numerous problems with the photolysis laser have precluded full experimental operation. Nevertheless, a few preliminary experiments on the photolysis of HN3 have been done and NH(a 1DELTA) has been positively identified as a major product. The sensitivity of the laser-induced fluorescence detection system has been tested in a few experiments on OH which was produced by chemical methods
