Abstract
A waveguide CO2 laser of wide tunability was used to pump infrared tra nsitions of the (CD3OD)-C-13 C-O stretching vibrational mode. The opto acoustic signal associated with the absorbing transitions served as a guide to search for new laser lines. We could observe 36 new far-infra red laser lines ranging from 57 to 1192 mu m. All lines were character ized in wavelength, relative polarization, intensity, optimum pressure of operation, and precise offset measurements.
