Abstract :
A transient plasma is located within the Fabry-Perot resonator of a dc hydrogen cyanide laser. Plasma tuning sweeps the resonator modes through the emission line of the HCN molecules and produces pulses of far-infrared output radiation. Pulse production by hydrogen, nitrogen, helium, and argon pulsed plasmas is discussed.
