First-Overtone CO Laser: Gain Kinetics, RF Discharge and Atmospheric Spectroscopy
Abstract
The main objective of the Project was a complex study of first-overtone (FO) CO laser kinetics, RF discharge features and atmospheric spectroscopy, which is extremely important for getting recommendations for a development of RF discharge FO CO laser and delivery its radiation to the object. Experimental and theoretical activity on the Project consisted of three main tasks which were carried out in parallel: Experimental and theoretical study of FO CO laser active medium characteristics. Feasibility study experiments on studying the radio-frequency (RF) discharge in gas mixtures containing CO molecules and preliminary theoretical calculations of its properties. Experimental study and theoretical analysis of IR radiation absorption coefficients for different organic and non-organic substances near the wavelengths corresponding to FO CO laser spectrum lines.
