Abstract:
A spectrometer for the near IR with resolution not worse than 0.05 cm is built based on an optical parametric oscillator (OPO). The spectrometer uses a LiIO crystal with a transmission band up to 3.7 mm; its frequency tuning is performed automatically (the tuning region is determined by the resonator mirrors); in the 1.7-2.3 mm band it provides an output pulse energy of up to 30 mJ at a repetition rate of 0.2-0.5 Hz. The absorption of powerful IR radiation by molecular NH is studied using this spectrometer.
