Recently photochemically augmented combustion techniques have been researched in order to shorten ignition delay and to accelerate the burning velocity of reactive gases by irradiation from ultraviolet light sources. However, the phenomena of the ignition and the flame growth still have not been observed thoroughly and the photochemical reactions have yet to be clarified. At first step, authors have carried out experiments on the ignition for hydrogen-oxygen-argon mixtures by using an ArF excimer laser to observe the phenomena of ignition and flame growth by using a high speed camera and the shadowgraphy, and also to evaluate the minimum incident laser energy for the ignition under various mixture conditions.
