Abstract
Laser‐induced vibrational fluorescence experiments have been accomplished with a newly developed cw chemical laser. The design and operating characteristics of this small‐scale transverse flow chemical laser source are presented. The fluorescence measurement technique and apparatus provide several advantages over the use of pulsed chemical lasers for similar measurements. The present laser is also useful as a selectively tunable probe for single pass gain measurements in chemical lasers.Keywords
