  • Abstract
    104 (\\nu_{2} + \\nu_{4}) \\leftarrow \\nu_{2} hot-band transitions, some of which correspond to known (\\nu_{2} + \\nu_{4}) \\leftarrow \\nu_{2} CF4laser lines, have been identified and measured in high-resolution Doppler-limited spectra of12CF4near 16 μm, obtained with a tunable diode laser. From an analysis of these frequencies, the rotational and tensor splitting constants for the ν2vibrational level have been determined. These constants, together with the \\nu_{2} + \\nu_{4} pump-band spectrum previously obtained, allow the laser emission frequencies for any given CO2pump line to be calculated with an accuracy of 0.01-0.003 cm-1.
