Optically pumped isotopic ammonia laser system

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5143548

An optically pumped isotopic ammonia laser system which is capable of producing a plurality of frequencies in the middle infrared spectral region. Two optical pumping mechanisms are disclosed, I.E., pumping on r(J) and lasing on p(J) in response to enhancement of rotational cascade lasing including stimulated raman effects, and, pumping on r(J) and lasing on p(J+2). The disclosed apparatus for optical pumping include a hole coupled cavity and a grating coupled cavity.
