New CW far-infrared lasing in /N-14/H3 using Stark tuning
Abstract
New CW far-infrared lasing lines have been obtained in (N-14)H3 using either CO2 or N2O pump lasers. Except for two of them, all of the lines have been obtained using the Stark effect to tune the infrared laser line and the infrared ammonia transition into frequency coincidence. Electric fields up to 18 kV/cm have been used with pressures of 20 millitorr.
