Zusammenfassung: | The chemical and energy transfer reactions involved in the helium-diluted DF-CO2 chemical transfer laser system are discussed. Experimental and theoretical rate coefficient literature is reviewed and the most probable rates are selected for the kinetic model of the reaction system. Results of computer experiments show the relative importance of these reactions for pulsed laser simulation. Predicted laser performance is most sensitive to values of rate coefficients for DF-CO2 transfer, collisional deactivation of CO2(00 1) by DF, and collisional deactivation of DF(v) by D and F. A detailed investigation of the relationship of cavity and chemical mechanisms for two levels of initiation is presented. |
