Interested in an exciting career opportunity? Global Laser Enrichment would love to hear from you. Take a look at our opportunities.

GLE utilizes the SILEX (Separation of Isotopes by Laser Excitation) process as the foundation for its technology development and commercialization program. The SILEX process is a third generation enrichment technology that utilizes lasers tuned to specific frequencies to selectively excite uranium hexafluoride gas molecules and enable an increase in the ratio of lighter, rarer uranium-235 atoms versus the more common uranium-238 atoms.
