Abstract
Our new waveguide pulsed CO2 laser, with peak powers above 1 kW, has allowed us to observe 24 new far-infrared laser lines emitted by hydrazine. Each of them is characterized in wavelength, relative polarization, intensity, optimum operating pressure and pump offset from the center of the exciting CO2 line. These new laser emissions either form pairs sharing the same pump line, or complete such pairs with lines known from the literature. In the latter case, we have measured the relative polarization and offset of the partner lines whenever they were not reported in the literature. The availability of laser systems with two emission lines orthogonally polarized and sharing the same upper level is expected to facilitate the assignment work. We present complete assignments for four FIR laser emissions, and we propose J and K values for 12 further laser systems.
