Small-Scale CW HF(DF) Chemical Laser.

摘要

The construction and performance of a small-scale cw HF(DF) chemical laser is described. A multiline output of about 15 W (8 W) was achieved. During single-line operation, 18HF 2-1and 1-0transition lines,with powers from 0.1to 2.4 W,and 24DF 3-2, 2-1and 1-0transition lines,with powers from 0.01to 0.30 W,were observed. Amplitude stability varied from +or - 1.5% to +or - 5%,and free-running short-term frequency stability was about +or - 10MHz. (Author)
