Abstract
We report the development of two 20 atm CO2-laser systems delivering continously tunable mid- infrared radiation with output powers of 250 mJ and 1 J respectively. Using this radiation foroptical pumping a superradiant far-infrared laser we obtain for several molecular gases emissionvia stimulated Raman scattering in the region from 8 cm' to 250 cm'.
