It is found that the addition of slots to a cavity lowers the required beam power for oscillation at high harmonics and can lead to a decrease of the start oscillation beam power as the harmonic number is increased.

Slotted devices thus appear potentially attractive as a means of achieving millimeter wave emission.","PeriodicalId":399243,"journal":{"name":"1987 Twelth International Conference on Infrared and Millimeter Waves","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1987-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124161943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The TEA-CO2 laser can be tuned over a range of about ± 2 GHz centered on each of its strong emission lines, and its longitudinal mode spacing is ∼120 MHz. The wedge and detector array provide an experimental resolution of a few 10's of MHz so that the intermode spacing of the laser can be probed in several well-resolved steps. As the temperature of the intracavity etalon is changed, the fine-scale tuning curve of the laser is a staircase function, with a series of flat (nearly constant frequency) segments separated by sharp jumps to the next longitudinal mode frequency. Oscilloscope traces recorded with a photon drag detector show the laser pulses to alternate, as the frequency scan proceeds, between pure single longitudinal mode structure and a small admixture of a second longitudinal mode. These results will be discussed in the context of the development of a high-power multi-atmosphere continuously-tunable SLM CO2 laser (2).","PeriodicalId":399243,"journal":{"name":"1987 Twelth International Conference on Infrared and Millimeter Waves","volume":"40 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1987-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129114963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
