A principle possibilities of the AVLIS technology, based on isotopically selective photoionization of atoms of target isotope by laser radiation at free molecular motion of atoms trough illuminated zone and the subsequent extraction of ions of the formed plasma, are considered. For three head stones of the technology: evaporation, photoionization and extraction of ions some of the scientific-technological problems is discussed. The situation with lasers for the AVLIS technology is briefly reviewed. A short estimation of developments of the technology in the industrial countries of the world is given and some ways of the development of the technology in Russia is discussed.
