Abstract

The physical and chemical concepts required to understand laser isotope separation are presented and discussed. The numerous successsful demonstrations of separating isotopes using lasers are reviewed to 1983. Emphasis is placed on the separation of 235U from 238U by multi-step selective ioniation of uranium atomic vapor, and on the separation of D and H and of T from D, by pulsed infrared laser multiple-photon dissociation of fluoroform and chloroform, respectively, because they are among the most successful and important examples of laser isotope separation to date.
