Abstract
A Doppler-free stimulated-emission technique using an optically pumped It laser with applications in spectroscopy and infrared frequency sta ndards is reported. A single mode CW Argon ion laser, locked on a hype rfine component of the 13P(43-0) line of the B-X electronic transition (127)I2 iodine molecule, is used as laser pump. Continuous wave oscil lation is observed on transitions belonging to the B-X system into hig hly excited vibrational levels of the ground state. The long term stab ility of the Argon laser (Delta nu/nu approximate to 10(-13) in 100 s) can be transferred to the iodine laser.
