Abstract
Thirteen new submillimetre emission lines have been observed when pumping CH3OD using isotopic CO2 lasers, and fourteen when pumping CD3OD. Three isotopic CO2 lasers were used12C16O2,12C18O2, and13C16O2. The new lines were observed in a Fabry-Perot resonator. The wavelength ranges observed were from 55 to 320 μm for CH3OD and from 66 to 531 μm for CD3OD. The polarisation of the submillimetre laser lines relative to the CO2 pump line has also been determined.
