Get PriceIn the US, several chemical exchange methods for lithium isotope separation have been under investigation in the 1930s and 1940s to develop a process for lithium-6 production, so that tritium could be obtained for thermonuclear weapons research.. The system finally selected was the COLEX process, with aqueous lithium hydroxide (LiOH) contacted with lithium-mercury amalgam.

Get PriceIsotope separation of rubidium by light-induced drift (LID) have been demonstrated with the use of a backpumping. A Ti:Al 2 O 3 laser and a diode laser were used to induce the LID and for the backpumping, respectively. Enhancement of the LID effect was observed by the backpumping.
Get PriceWhen a mixture jet enters a secondary light gas flow, a spatial separating of the species takes place, which is due to the difference of molecular mass of the species and that of molecular size as well. Such a flow can be used for gas or isotope mixture separation- The problem was previously studied in Refs.1–9.
Get PriceAbstract. In a dilute mixture of optically absorbing atoms or molecules and a buffer gas the phenomenon of Light-Induced Drift (LID) can occur when: (i) the optically absorbing particles are excited in a velocity selective way (Doppler effect) and (ii) the collision rates with the buffer gas are different for particles in the ground- and excited-states, respectively [1], The velocity selective ...
