METHOD FOR LASER SEPARATION OF CHLORINE ISOTOPES Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC B01D59/00 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to molecular physics, specifically to separation of chlorine isotopes, and can be used to obtain isotope-rich chlorine. The method for laser separation of chlorine isotopes includes irradiating a starting gas in the form of hydrogen chloride HCl with resonance infrared radiation with wavelength 3.782 mcm, subsequent exposure to laser radiation in the optical or infrared range, with intensity higher than 10¹³ W/cm², and extracting the formed positive ions, wherein the time between the exposure to resonance infrared radiation and laser radiation should not be longer than the decay time of the oscillatory state of hydrogen chloride HCl.

EFFECT: high effectiveness of separating chlorine isotopes.
