  • Abstract
    The gain of the Q(1) vibrational stokes line of H2has been measured as a function of pressure in a Raman amplifier cell of variable length. The threshold power for stimulated emission of the Q(1) vibrational and S(1) rotational stokes line of H2has been measured in a transverse resonator as a function of pressure. Both geometries give results in good agreement with theory, without invoking any other nonlinear instabilities.
