Saturation of hot CO2 by short 10.6 μm laser pulses

  • 1. Los Alamos National Lab., NM

Description

Saturation of the absorption of hot CO2 by 1.6 ns P(18) and P(20) laser pulses at 10.6 μm has been measured. Coherent propagation calculations with no fitting parameters are in good agreement with the data and are consistent with a substantial hot-band contribution to the P(20) saturation
