Abstract

Cross sections for production of excited states of Cd II resulting from He+-Cd and He+2-Cd collisions are reported. These data suggest that high-pressure (∼ atmospheres) operation of a He-Cd laser in which pumping is achieved by charge-transfer excitation with reactant He+2 might be possible. Selective population of the (4d)9(5s)2 2D3/2 level in He+2-Cd collisions produces enhancement of the 325.0-nm line relative to the 441.6 nm.
