Abstract
A technique of generating 1-ns pulses of CO2 laser radiation using a CdTe electro-optic gate driven by a laser-triggered Blumlein structure is described. By the use of intercavity absorbers, simultaneous output is obtained on multiple rotational lines of both the 9.4- and 10.4-μm vibrational bands.Keywords
