Abstract

The results of studying the characteristics of an intracavity laser spectrometer based on a polycrystalline Cr2+:ZnSe laser operating in a pulse-periodic regime with the pulse-repetition rate of 3 kHz and pulse duration of ∼50 ns are presented. Intracavity spectra of absorption of NH3 and CH4 gases in the vicinity of 2.35 μm are measured. The estimate of the spectrometer sensitivity is provided.
