HIGH POWER TUNABLE LASER SYSTEM [1 record]

Record 1 1989-03-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Lasers and Masers
DEF

A laser in which the frequency of the output radiation can be tuned over part or all of the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared regions of the spectrum

CONT

Use of tunable lasers. The sharpness of the frequency and the high power per unit solid angle and unit spectral bandpass in a laser beam make it attractive for infrared spectroscopy at ultrahigh resolution. The main problem is the tuning of the laser frequency, that is, varying some parameter in the laser system so that its frequency may be varied continuously and accurately.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Masers et lasers
DEF

laser à longueur d'onde réglable.

CONT

Le développement récent des lasers accordables (dont on peut régler la fréquence d'émission) ouvre les perspectives d'une photochimie sélective par laser permettant une meilleure compréhension des mécanismes des réactions chimiques.
