چکیده
The first experimental observations to our knowledge of sub-Doppler linewidths in a cell made using tunable far-infrared radiation are reported. A double-resonance scheme has been used, combining CO(2)-laser infrared radiation with tunable far-infrared radiation to observe a sub-Doppler line shape in an excited vibrational state of CH(3)OH.

Broadly tunable mid-infrared noise-immune cavity-enhanced optical heterodyne molecular spectrometer.
The sensitive spectroscopic technique noise-immune cavity-enhanced optical heterodyne molecular spectroscopy (NICE-OHMS) has been successfully used in a variety of systems; however, no broadly tunable setup has been developed for the mid-infrared. To this end, we have integrated a difference frequency generation system into a NICE-OHMS setup. Initial optimization and characterization was comple...
متن کاملFrequencies of Optically Pumped Sub-Doppler Far-Infrared Laser Lines of Methanol.
Sub-Doppler signals from the gain curves of four lines of a transversely pumped far-infrared methanol laser were used to stabilize the frequencies of the laser. The frequencies of four of the strongest FIR laser lines (70, 119, 123, and 570 µm) were measured. Lasers locked to these lines have a frequency reproducibility of a few parts in 10(8) and an uncertainty of less than 30 kHz. Copyright 1...
متن کاملFrequency-comb-referenced molecular spectroscopy in the mid-infrared region.
A simple method for absolute-frequency measurements of molecular transitions in the mid-IR region is reported. The method is based on a cw singly resonant optical parametric oscillator (SRO), which is tunable from 3.2 to 3.45 μm. The mid-IR frequency of the SRO is referenced to an optical frequency comb through its pump and signal beams. Sub-Doppler spectroscopy and absolute-frequency measureme...

using C02 laser difference generation in metal-insulator-metal diodes either from the difference between a fixed frequency C02 laser and a tunable waveguide laser, or from the difference between two fixed frequency C02 lasers plus microwave sidebands. is being used to make highly accurate FIR frequency measurements of stable species to serve as frequency and wavelength calibration standards; to...
متن کاملExtension of tunable far-infrared spectroscopy to 7.9THz.
We generated tunable far-infrared radiation by mixing CO(2) -laser,(15)NH(3) -laser, and microwave radiations in a W-Co metal-insulator-metal diode. We used this far-infrared radiation to measure accurately the torsion-rotation transitions of CH(3)OH in the 6-8-THz region.
