Abstract

The combination of a wide frequency tuning range with the high output power in a waveguide CO₂ laser is necessary for effective pumping of FIR lasers. This problem deals with the realization of severe selection of both a vibration-rotational transition and a single resonator mode in waveguide lasers with a diffraction grating. The main intention of our work was the detailed theoretical and experimental investigation of the frequency-selective properties of laser resonator using a square-bore waveguide, a diffraction grating and a distant plane mirror (near Case 1 of waveguide resonator). Its results are the further development of the investigation of the near Case 1 of a waveguide resonator selective properties [1-3].
