CHD2OH optically pumped by a waveguide CO2 laser : new far-infrared laser lines from the CD2 wagging vibrational mode

For the first time, a wide tunability waveguide CO2 laser was used to pump the CHD2OH molecule for the generation of new FIR laser lines with a large offset. Optoacoustic signals associated with the infrared absorbing transitions of the CD2 wagging vibrational mode served as a guide for finding new laser lines. All lines were characterized in wavelength, relative polarization, intensity, optimum pressure of operation, and precise offset measurements FUNDAÇÃO DE AMPARO À PESQUISA DO ESTADO DE SÃO PAULO - FAPESP CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICO - CNPQ Fechado
