Frequency Tunable First-Overtone and Fundamental Band CO Laser System: Parametric Study, Gain Kinetics and Model Development for Highly Excited Vibrational Transitions of CO Molecule

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking Lebedev Physics Institute as follows: The contractor will investigate physical processes in highly excited vibrational transitions (V of 20 to 40) of the CO molecule for use in frequency-selective first overtone and fundamental band CO lasers to include, but not be limited to, small signal gain and saturated gain kinetics.
