摘要：

The gain media in the CO2 laser and the CO laser are compared and the emission structure is discussed on the basis of Patel's small-signal gain formula. Some features of a liquid-N-cooled CO laser plasma are discussed with respect to optimization for different wavelength regions. The corresponding resonator conditions are explained. The considerable number of lines available and their distribution over a wide wavelength region make the CO laser an interesting tool for molecular spectroscopy. Examples in the field of laser magnetic resonance (LMR), the possibilities of generating a secondary frequency standard at 5 mu m and the potential of the CO laser in photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) are discussed.
