An argon fluoride laser absorbs energy from a source, causing the argon gas to react with the fluorine gas producing argon monofluoride, a temporary complex, in an excited energy state: 2 Ar + F 2 → 2 ArF. The complex can undergo spontaneous or stimulated emission, reducing its energy state to a metastable, but highly repulsive ground state ...
