INFRARED MODULATION TECHNIQUES.

Abstract

This report covers the first six months work on infrared modulation techniques, specifically aimed at pulse modulation of the CO2 laser. The performance limits of gallium arsenide electro-optic modulators external to the laser cavity were determined. Evaluation of modulators internal to the laser cavity was begun near the end of the report period.
