A transverse flow uniform droplet generator and method for its use. The droplet generator, such as is used with a gas laser system, produces singlet oxygen from a flow of droplets of liquid basic hydrogen peroxide (BHP) reacting with a transverse a flow of He/Cl2 gas mixture. The resulting flow of singlet oxygen travels in the same direction as the He/Cl2 gas mixture and the unreacted BHP is collected on the opposite of the reaction volume from which it enters. Very uniformly-size BEP droplets are formed by an injector which specific mechanical resonance characteristics and the flow of the BHP and the gas mixture in the generator volume is also carefully controlled.

An apparatus to promote a chemical reaction between a chlorine-bearing gas stream and a liquid basic hydrogen peroxide stream, comprising: a flow device to produce a continuous substantially linear flow of the chlorine-bearing gas stream, the substantially linear flow of the chlorine-bearing gas stream being directed in a first direction through a chemical reaction volume; and an injector to generate a discrete substantially linear flow of the liquid basic hydrogen peroxide stream, the substantially linear flow of the liquid basic hydrogen peroxide stream occurring in a second direction that is substantially perpendicular to the first direction and directed through the chemical reaction volume, whereby the chlorine-bearing gas stream and the liquid basic hydrogen peroxide stream react chemically to produce a substantially linear flow of singlet oxygen.
