Abstract: An investigation was made of the stimulated emission of light as a result of transitions in singly ionized chlorine and iodine atoms. The pumping was provided by bombardment with fast (15–20 eV) and slow (1–3 eV) electrons. The stimulated emission mechanism was analyzed. The efficiencies of stimulated emission due to transitions in Cl⁺ and I⁺ were compared with the efficiency due to transitions in Ar⁺.
