AbstractAbstract
[en] Enrichment of the carbon isotopes by photodissociation or photochemical reaction of Freon (CF2Cl2) induced by a TEA-CO2 laser has been reported recently by several authors. The present work shows that large effects on the chlorine isotopes are also induced. Their laser-wavelength dependence has been measured, and some complementary information on the carbon isotopic effects has been collected. Excitation around 930 cm-1 yields an enrichment in 37Cl in the residual CF2Cl2, and excitation around 1085 cm-1 has an opposite effect, while 13C enrichment is found around both 1090 and 922 cm-1 and 12C enrichment is found around 1065 cm-1. These effects can be qualitatively explained with the known fundamental vibrations ν1 (922 cm-1, stretching mode) and ν6 (992 cm-1, rocking mode) of CF2Cl2. The efficiency of the photodissociations of CF2Cl2 induced by a CO2 laser is evaluated, and an effective threshold energy density of 3 J/cm2 is found at 1089 cm-1
