Abstract

We report for the first time wavelength, relative polarization, and frequency measurements for 47 new cw FIR laser lines in the wavelength region from 120 to 1714 μm, all obtained by optically pumping CD2F2 with a CO2 laser. Relative output powers were also measured. For comparison, the 189.8 μm line pumped by RI(34) is nearly five times as efficient as the 118.8 μm methyl alcohol line.
