Intensive Investigation and developmentof the chemically pumped Iodine laser has caused the creation by Kawasaiw of chemical oxygen Iodine laser (COiL) for material processing. The field of such a laser application could be widen if the pulse operation would be available. Such a regime allows to hightert the instant power of COIL with the average power being the same as for CW operation. The high instant power can be more preferable for such technological processes as drilling, cutting, ste.
