Abstract :
A compact CO2-NH3FIR laser system, with an NH3laser cavity inserted in the pump CO2laser cavity, was designed. Temporally smooth and reproducible single mode NH3laser pulses with an energy of 5 mJ (20 kW peak power) were obtained at the 152 μm line when optically pumped by the injection-locked single-mode CO2laser with a pulse energy of 0.3 J.
