INFRARED DETECTORS, LASER TECHNOLOGY AND SIGNAL PROCESSING.
Abstract
During the third year of the grant research was carried out in the areas of CO2 laser technology, photoelectric detection in the near infrared, the helium-neon-cadmium laser system, mass spectroscopy of CO2:N:He discharges, optical heterodyning, optically induced scattering in solids, and studies on mixtures of formic acid and nitrogen forming a CO2 laser by dissociation. In the sections of the report summaries of each phase is given. The measurement of gain profiles in CO2 lasers has lead to the construction of a high gain CO2 amplifier, and detailed knowledge of the generation of multiple beams in solids through optically induced phase gratings.
