  • Abstract
    The mid-IR cw tunable solid state Cr2+:ZnSe laser with spectral density of intrinsic frequency noise less than 30 mHz/Hz1/2 was created. The laser was applied for sub-Doppler spectroscopy of (ν1+ν4) vibrational-rotational band of methane and narrow resonances of saturated dispersion at λ = 2.36 μm were demonstrated for the first time. Characteristics of resonances and low frequency noise of the laser pave the way to a short-term frequency stability at the level of 10-15 - 10-16.
