摘要：

Fifteen new, Raman far-infrared (FIR) laser emission lines in CH3F have been excited by optically pumping up to 24 GHz off resonance with high-intensity CO2 TEA laser radiation (up to 20 MW/cm 2). Most of these new lines are produced with high quantum efficiency in a waveguide laser system. High-intensity laser pumping could also be applied to other gases to produce many new, efficient lines. The present results suggest that a nearly continuously tunable source of FIR radiation in the 175-500-, um range could be obtained through Raman laser emission in CH3F using a tunable, multiatmospheric CO2 pump laser. © 1979, Optical Society of America.
