Atomic vapor laser isotope separation (AVLIS) is a technology used for enriching isotopes of certain elements, particularly uranium. The process relies on the use of lasers to selectively ionize one isotope of an element while leaving others un-ionized, allowing for the separation and enrichment of that specific isotope. ### Key Concepts of AVLIS: 1. **Isotopes**: Isotopes are variants of a chemical element that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
