INVESTIGATION OF MOLECULAR GAS LASERS. (1998)

Abstract
The diffusion coefficient for 001 state of CO2 into CO2 is measured and is shown to be twice larger than the self-diffusion coefficient of CO2. The wall deexcitation 001 state is also determined in detail. In another experiment, the collision lifetime of 100 state, the lower laser level is measured for the first time and studied in detail. A theoretical calculation is completed dealing with details of a CO2 amplifier saturation and manifestation of 'Lamb dip' effect. (Author)
