Simultaneous laser action on CO2 and N2 O transitions has been achieved in a helical resistor-pin-type transversely excited (TE) laser. The laser emits typically a power of 10-100 kW in a 700-ns-long pulse which consists basically of two overlapping pulses, the peaks of which do not coincide, and which can be associated with the CO2 and N2 O emission, respectively. The conditions of optimal operation are described and the effects of some parameter changes are indicated. 相似文献

Freon 12 and SF6 have been used to passivelyQ switch laser transitions fromR(17) toP(36) in the00deg1-10deg0 N2 O band. Pulses having a half-intensity width of 0.75 μs with peak powers 10-20 times the CW power were observed. 相似文献

The afterglow pulse-gain technique was used to measure the relaxation of the 00°1 upper laser level in N2 O from 300 to 700°K. The rate constantk_{N_{2}O} (torr-1s-1) varies with temperature aslog 10 k_{N_{2}O} = 4.53 - 10.9T^{-1/3} . Measurements of the relaxation time at 300°K agree with the fluorescence technique results of Yardley [1]. Gain studies were also made with gas mixtures in a nonflowing system. Single-pulsed N2 O + CO + He mixtures at 300°K showed considerable peak gain. However, subsequent pulses of these mixtures show that the gain is reduced because of the chemical reaction forming CO2 . Measurements of this transformation from one molecular laser mixture to another are discussed. 相似文献

53 new CW FIR laser lines are reported in 1,1-difluoroethane optically pumped near 10 μm by CO2 and N2 O lasers. The emission spectrum initially reported in the literature consisted of four lines between 770 and 458 μm and has now been extended to the 2.39 mm- 319 μm region. The reason for this extension, especially to the long wavelengths, is analyzed. 相似文献

Pulsed HF laser radiation has been used for direct optical excitation of CO2 and N2 O lasers at 10 and 5 atm gas pressures, respectively, which are the pressures required for continuous laser frequency tuning between the line centers in these gases. The maximum demonstrated quantum efficiency is about 14 percent, which seems to be limited by the formation of pressure waves in the gas, in addition to losses in the resonator optics. We find that quantum efficiencies close to unity are theoretically feasible with a low-loss resonator, and by using a sufficiently short pump pulse to avoid a serious influence from pressure waves. The excitation scheme can be used with any of the CO2 and N2 O laser isotopes. 相似文献

Third-harmonic generation of CO2 P(24) 10.6 mu m laser radiation was achieved in a mixture of DBr and N2 O. The ratio of DBr and N2 O used was 29:1. A frequency tripled signal was observed up to a total pressure of 4 atm. 相似文献

The CS2 /O2 /N2 O flame laser has been operated for the first time under conditions in which the spectral output is nearly single line. This transition is theP_{10-9} (17) of CO at 5.4265 μm, the same transition which was observed to oscillate in single-line fashion by Hirose et al. in an electrically initiated CO chemical laser. It is suggested that the unique behavior of this line may be due to its close proximity to aP branch transition in an adjacent band, namely theP_{9-8} (23) line, such that the gain profiles of the two lines overlap. Calculations suggest that at the conditions of these experiments, the separation of the line centers for this pair is about 0.3 Å or less. TheP_{10-9} (17) transition was also found to be totally absent under certain conditions of high multiline power, particulary at low O2 and N2 O flows. This may be due to absorption by a high-bandR branch transition at 5.4266 μm, namely theR_{15-16} (32) line. 相似文献

The use of N2 O and CO2 isotopes as active species for a blackbody radiation pumped laser has been experimentally demonstrated and theoretically analyzed. The results obtained for mixtures containing N2 O,13C16O2 , and12C18O2 are presented. For the first time, continuous lasing action with blackbody radiation pumping has been obtained for this species. Two active species mixtures were tested, obtaining up to a 100 percent increase in output power due toupsilon-upsilon transfer. A simple model was developed and gain calculations are presented. 相似文献

Measurements were made of the radiative lifetime for the 001-100 transition in N2 O, the absolute population densities of the laser levels, and the saturation parameter in a typical flowing N2 O-N2 -He laser. These numbers are compared with the corresponding parameters in the CO2 -N2 -He system to explain the difference in their performance characteristics. In addition, dissociation of N2 O in a discharge and power enhancement in the N2 ON2 -He laser by adding CO are discussed. 相似文献

Laser action was obtained from rhodamine 6G and sodium fluorescein solutions by transverse pumping with a pulsed nitrogen laser. Relatively high efficiencies were observed and the threshold powers required were low. A repetition rate of ∼70 Hz was achieved with modest pump powers. 相似文献

Using long-pulse electron-beam pumping, long-pulse laser emissions at 357.7, 380.5, and 405.9 nm have been observed in the second positive system of nitrogen with pulse durations of 150, 400, and 400 ns, respectively. Substantial improvements in laser performance were observed by adding excess Ne and He into N2 + Ar mixtures. Peak powers of 56, 44, and 66 kW/cm2have been obtained for the three wavelengths, respectively. 相似文献

Experiments on IR laser action and gain measurements are reported for a CO2 -containing gas mixture flow that cools as a result of expansion. The mixture is preheated by a reflected shock wave, and the gas is expanded into a vacuum through a slit. Laser action is obtained in a CO2 -He mixture, while the addition of nitrogen increases the gain. The gain was found to depend on the distance from the slit and the gas pressure before the slit. 相似文献

Two hundred and forty-four candidate transitions for optically pumped far infrared lasers have been identified in C12H3 F, C13H3 F, C12D3 F, C12H3 Cl35, C12H3 Cl37, C12H3 Br79, C12H3 Br81, and D2 O using as candidate pump lines, 781 in number, the isotopic forms of CO2 , the sequence and hot bands of C12O2 16, and the N2 O bands. The dominant transition parameters responsible for strong emission from TEA, CW, and long pulse modes of operation were identified by a correlation between known experimental behavior and the pertinent transition parameters, the results being that strong TEA laser emission correlates with ground state population while strong CW and long pulse emission correlate with absorption coefficient. The candidate transitions were subsequently selected on the basis of these parameters using calculated transitions and assignments based on band data from high resolution laser-Stark spectroscopy and measured candidate pump frequencies. 相似文献
