Abstract

A rapid search technique for submillimetre laser emission lines is described. The method involves rapid frequency sweeping of a particular CO2 laser pump line, and simultaneous adjustment of the submillimetre laser cavity length until laser oscillation occurs. The use of the submillimetre laser itself as the probe eliminates the need for a separate detection method, such as an opto-acoustic cell. Examples of the application of this rapid sweep method to the observation of new lines in waveguide laser pumped CH2CF2 and CH2F2 are given.
