Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1691588A2] The device has an injection nozzle (13) of an injection mechanism (12), which is positioned on a discharge region in a discharge chamber. The nozzle provides sequence of single volumes base materials serving the jet production, with a sequence frequency which corresponds to the frequency of the gas discharge. A vapor laser (27) is provided for consecutive vaporization of the single volumes in the discharge region. An independent claim is also included for a method for production of ultraviolet radiation.
