Abstract: An experimental investigation was made of the influence of molecular chlorine on the output energy of a pulsed oxygen–iodine chemical laser using CH₃I and CF₃I atomic iodine donors. It was found that for CF₃I the addition of appreciable (0.5 Torr) quantities of chlorine to the singlet oxygen stream reduced only negligibly the output energy, whereas for CH₃I the lasing was suppressed at chlorine concentrations an order of magnitude lower.
