Generation and Applications of 16 GHz Tunable Sidebands from a CO2 Laser

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Optical Sciences ((SSOS,volume 7))

Abstract

A microwave-tuned infrared laser source has been developed to provide tunable sideband power from a CO2 laser up to 200 mW. For each sideband, continuous tuning of 8 GHz has been obtained. Preliminary results on SF6 transmission spectra at a resolution of 2.5 MHz are presented.
