Abstract
The first observation of the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) from the RydbergC 1 Σ +(η′ = 0) state of CO is reported. When theC 1 Σ +(η′ = 0) state was populated through the two-photon excitation, infrared radiation near 2.0 μm was ejected in forward as well as backward directions along the laser propagation. The assignment as theC 1 Σ +(η′ = 0) →B 1 Σ +(η = 0) transition was confirmed. Several characteristics of ASE from theC 1 Σ +(η′ = 0) state are presented.
