Abstract

Both the multiphoton absorption and the luminescence brightness of osmium tetroxide induced by absorption of temporally smooth CO2 10P(20) laser pulses of 10 and 40 ns FWHM have been measured for pressures in the range 6.7 to 200 Pa. A dependence of these phenomena on laser pulse length is observed. Comparison of the luminescence brightness to the average excitation shows that the distribution of the multiphoton excitation depends on the laser pulse intensity for the two pulse lengths studied.
