Abstract :
An iodine photodissociation laser has been operated at three atmospheres by adding an inert gas to the laser medium. With three atmospheres of helium added a stimulated-emission cross section of 
cm2and an inversion half-life of 110 μs was observed.
cm2and an inversion half-life of 110 μs was observed.Keywords :
