Polarization modulation in an optically-pumped far-infrared laser
Measurements performed on intracavity polarization modulation in an optically-pumped far-infrared laser are presented. The experimental work is a preparatory first step towards the development of a polarimeter diagnostic system for plasma physics applications. The present system utilizes a CO2 laser whose output polarization state is modulated using a CdTe crystal placed within a sinusoidal magnetic field. The corresponding polarization modulated amplitude of the far-infrared output is determined, and the results obtained are in good agreement with the Verdet coefficient of CdTe previously reported.
