Separation of Carbon Isotopes by High-Power IR Laser Radiation
摘要
Results of the development of an industrial technology for the enrichment of the 13C isotope on the basis of the multiphoton dissociation of the molecules of a substance under the action of the radiation of a pulsed CO2 laser are presented. The world’s first industrial plant for the 13C enrichment “Uglerod” is described. The physical bases for the effective production of 13C with a concentration higher than 99% are considered.
