A Long Pulse Discharge Excited ArF Laser
An X-ray preionised, discharge excited ArF excimer laser, = 193 nm, has been studied in the long pulse regime. The laser performance is found to be primarily dependent on the discharge stability, and therefore, on the gas composition, preionization timing and the pumping power. Using X-ray preionization and prepulse-mainpulse excitation, laser pulselengths of up to 120-ns full-width at half-max...
متن کاملPulse shaping of transversely excited atmospheric CO2 laser using a simple plasma shutter.
The pulse from a transversely excited atmospheric CO(2) laser consists of a sharp spike followed by a long, drawn out tail region spanning about 2-5 micros caused by the nitrogen gas in the laser cavity. The nitrogen tail is undesirable in many applications because it decreases the average power of the laser pulse. We employ a pinhole plasma shutter for eliminating the nitrogen tail and shorten...
متن کاملTransversely Excited Multipass Photoacoustic Cell Using Electromechanical Film as Microphone
A novel multipass photoacoustic cell with five stacked electromechanical films as a microphone has been constructed, tested and characterized. The photoacoustic cell is an open rectangular structure with two steel plates facing each other. The longitudinal acoustic resonances are excited transversely in an optical multipass configuration. A detection limit of 22 ppb (10(-9)) was achieved for fl...
متن کاملVibrationally Excited Hcn in the Luminous Infrared Galaxy Ngc 4418
Infrared pumping and its effect on the excitation of HCN molecules can be important when using rotational lines of HCN to probe dense molecular gas in galaxy nuclei. We report the first extragalactic detection of (sub)millimeter rotational lines of vibrationally excited HCN, in the dust-enshrouded nucleus of the luminous infrared galaxy NGC 4418. We estimate the excitation temperature of Tvib ≈...
متن کاملA Submillimeter HCN Laser in IRC +10216.
We report the detection of a strong submillimeter-wavelength HCN laser line at a frequency near 805 GHz toward the carbon star IRC +10216. This line, the J=9-8 rotational transition within the (0400) vibrationally excited state, is one of a series of HCN laser lines that were first detected in the laboratory in the early days of laser spectroscopy. Since its lower energy level is 4200 K above t...
