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

Curtis et al. applied a theorem due to Bezout to show that almost all continuous, periodic, band-limited two-dimensional signals can be reconstructed from at most 4(N1 + N2 )2zero-crossing samples where N1 and N2 is the number of Fourier coefficients in the signal. In this letter we prove a new version of Bezout's theorem and apply it to the above problem to provide a more lenient sampling requirement of at most 8N1 N2 zero-crossing samples. 相似文献

Small-signal gain of flowing gas CO2 laser amplifiers at 10.6 microns has been optimized for media including pure CO2 CO2 : N2 , CO2 : He, CO2 : CO, CO2 : O2 , CO2 : N2 : He, CO2 : CO : He, and CO2 : CO : N2 . Optimum gain of all flowing gas systems studied increases monotonically with increasing gas flow rate. In the low CO2 flow rate region, 10 < RCO 2 : < 50 cm3/min, gas flow enhances the gain most for systems containing N2 . Results provide strong evidence that the rapid increase in gain with flow rate in CO2 : N2 mixtures is due to removal by convection of the dissociated product CO. For 50 < RCO 2 < 200 cm3/min, a slow linear increase in gain of all gas mixtures with increasing flow rate occurs and is attributed to the cooling of gas temprature by convection. A stronger dependence of gainG on amplifier boreD , viz.,G propto I/D , was obtained for flowing gas media relative to that previously observed for nonflowing gas mixtures which is consistent with the proposed mechanism of gas cooling by convection. Highest gain values obtained were 7.8 and 6.2 dB/m with the flowing gas mixtures CO2 : N2 : He and CO2 : CO : He, respectively, in a 12 mm bore water-cooled amplifier tube. Similarities between CO2 : N2 and CO2 : CO systems suggest that pumping of the CO2 laser by resonant transfer from CO* (upsilon = 1 ) can be significant. 相似文献

Experimental results for the behavior of the emission of the discharge-excited first- and second-positive bands of N2 and flow-tube measurements for the deactivation of theA^{3}Sigmamin{u}max{+} andB^{3}Pi_{g} levels of N2 by SF6 are presented. The results of both these experiments are used to explain the operating mechanisms of the N2 /SF6 laser. 相似文献

The operation of a transversely excited N2 O laser is improved by the addition of H2 or CO to the discharge. The improvement is due to the effective nullification of the dissociative electron attachment reaction with N2 O. 相似文献

This paper presents a thin amorphous Si (a-Si) on Ti as an oxidation-resistant material for a self-aligned TiSi2 process. It is shown that a thin a-Si over Ti film will greatly suppress the interaction between Ti and ambient gases (N2 and O2 ) during the thermal TiSi2 formation cycle in conventional N2 furnance while maintaining satisfactory self-aligned property after silicidation at a temperature below 630°C. 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 effects of gas additives on optical gain of the CO chemical laser (CL) have been measured for N2 , SO2 , H2 , HF, CF4 , CCl2 F2 , CO, OCS, N2 O, and NO. One of the more unusual additives, NO, has been used to control the output spectrum of a laser oscillator by controlled sequential quenching of the high bands. The significance of these results for total power enhancement, output spectrum control, and alternate diluent use is discussed. 相似文献

Explosions can be induced in mixtures of SF6 with appropriate fuels, by a single pulse of a free running CO2 laserapprox 1.5 mu s [full width at half maximum (FWHM)]. A typical threshold for initiation of reaction was somewhat above 4 J for a 1:1 mixture of SF6 and SiH4 , at a total pressure of 10 torr, with the unfocused beam illuminating 8 cm2of cell area. High levels of luminosity were generated covering both the near ultraviolet, visible, and infrared. The spectral and temporal characteristics of the following fuels and fuel-oxidizer combinations (with SF6 present) are summarized: the most prominent emitter from SiH4 is S*2 , B3Sigma-_{u} ; Sn(CH3 )4 + N2 O [SnO*; SnF*] ; Pb(CH3 )4 + N2 O [PbO*; PbF*; PbS*] ; Bi(CH3 )3 + N2 O [BiF*]; B2 H6 with and without N2 O [BO*; BO*2 ; S*2 ]. Several atomic lines were also recorded. Estimates of the energy density deposited by the laser pulse suggest that initiation of rapid reaction was primarily due to attack of superexcited SF6 by highly reducing radical species. 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

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

Chemical degradation products created during the operation of ane -beam pumped, repetitively pulsed XeF laser with closed flow cycle capability are reported. From an initial lasing mixture of Ar/Xe/NF3 , the degraded gas was found to contain N2 F2 (N2 F4 ), CO2 , nitrogen oxides, CF4 , and SiF4 . Gaseous species were identified by their infrared and ultraviolet absorption spectra. Also present was a solid material tentatively thought to consist of fluorocarbons and aluminum fluorides. The observed gas chemistry suggests methods for improving laser performance by prevention of contaminant buildup. 相似文献

Electrical plasma parameters of the CO2 laser were investigated by probe and high-frequency techniques. The electron energy distribution function was measured by the second derivative method. The relatively high-pressure effect on the electron probe current was taken into account when analyzing the experimental curves. The influence of the addition of N2 , He, Xe and the influence of CO2 dissociation on the plasma discharge properties were studied. Calculations of the pumping rates to vibrational levels taking part in creating inversion show that the influence on output power of a CO2 laser usually observed with the addition of N2 and He cannot be explained by a changing of the electron component of the plasma. The increase of output power and efficiency with addition of Xe to the CO2 laser is connected with an essential changing of plasma parameters of the electron component. 相似文献

Results of spectroscopic investigations of the spontaneous emission of CO2 lasers are presented. The band head emission in the Second Positive System (C^{3}pi_{u}- B^{3}pi_{g} ) of N2 is studied as a function of discharge current and laser output power. The observed changes of the band head intensities are described in terms of the vibrational energy distribution in theC^{3}pi_{u} electronic state of N2 . A simple model is developed by which the influence of the laser process can be understood. The excitation properties of theC^{3}pi_{u} state are in reasonable qualitative agreement with the predictions of this model. 相似文献

Stimulated rotational Raman scattering in the atmosphere 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Theoretical and experimental information in the literature is used to calculate the gain coefficient for stimulated rotational Raman scattering by atmospheric N2 and O2 . The dependence on laser wavelength and polarization, as well as on the pressure and altitude is discussed. It is pointed out that because of pressure broadening, the gain coefficient is independent of altitude up to an altitude of 40-50 km, where the Raman transition becomes Doppler broadened. The 1 percent conversion threshold for vertical propagation from the ground up is calculated for various transitions and laser beam characteristics. The highest-gain transition, theS (8) transition of N2 , is shown to have a 1 percent conversion intensity threshold of ∼ 1.2 MW/cm2 for linearly polarized light at a wavelength of 400 nm. 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

An intracavity laser technique has been used to study the absorption of electron-beam pumped Ne/Kr/F2 gas mixtures (196 and 300 K) in the "blue wing" of the Kr2 F emission continuum. The experiments were conducted at 358 nm using theupsilon' = 0 rightarrow upsilon" = 1 transition of the N2 (C rightarrow B ) laser. Comparing the results with the predictions of a computer model, the species primarily responsible for absorption have been identified as Ne+2 , Kr+2 , and Kr2 F*. The photoabsorption cross sections for Ne+2 and Kr2 F (Kr+2 F-) at 358 nm have been estimated to be8.1 cdot 10^{-19} and5.4 cdot 10^{-18} cm2, respectively. The Kr2 F* absorption cross section is roughly 20 percent of that reported for Kr+2 at the same wavelength. The fluorescence efficiency of Kr2 F* ine -beam excited 94.93 percent Ne/5 percent Kr/0.07 percent F2 (P_{total} = 4000 torr) gas mixtures has been found to be a factor of 2.8 higher than that of the N2 (C rightarrow B ) band in Ar/5 percent N2 mixtures. Also, the rate constant for quenching of Kr2 F* by F2 was measured to be(4.1 pm 0.5) cdot 10^{-10} cm3. s-1at 300 K and(3.0 pm 0.5) cdot 10^{-10} cm2. s-1at 196 K. 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
