Optical and infrared lasers. Final report, 1 December 1972--31 March 1978

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6213262
Quantum mechanical predictions for the gain of an optically pumped CW FIR laser are presented for cases in which one or both of the pump and FIR transitions are pressure or Doppler broadened. The results are compared to those based on the rate equation model. Some of the quantum mechanical predictions are verified in CH/sup 3/OH.
