Tunable Diode Laser Gain Measurements of the HF(2-0) Overtone Transitions in a Small Scale HF Laser

Abstract

A tunable diode laser was used to probe the overtone gain medium of a small-scale HF laser. Two-dimensional, spatially resolved small signal gain and temperature maps were generated for the P(3) ro-vibrational transition in the first HF overtone band.
