Abstract
The radiation of optically pumped submillimeter lasers has been investigated using a heterodyne system with a Schottky barrier diode in a quasi optical mixer. The laser frequency, the mode purity and the total linewidth was determined by mixing experiments between two submillimeter lasers. The uncertainty of the measured laser frequency is about 200 kHz.
