  • Abstract
    The 90° polarization flip with hysteresis effect is observed at zero magnetic field in the CW 337-μm HCN laser. The flip disappears when the pressure is increased. In order to obtain the flip, it is necessary that under a constant pressure the input is larger than a threshold input at which the flip appears.
