Abstract

A transversely pumped far-infrared laser cavity has been used to discover two optically pumped laser lines: the 357.7 μm line from H2C=CF2 and the 242.3 μm line from CH3OH. Using heterodyne techniques, the frequencies of fourteen far-infrared laser emissions have been measured, six for the first time.
