Abstract
Based on the density matrix theory of quantum system, the optimum operating parameters of pulsed optically pumped NH3 and CH3OH F-P cavity far-infrare d laser (NH3/CH3OH-OPFIRL) were studied and compared theoretically. The dif ferences of the operating parameters between the NH3-OPFIRL and CH3OH-OPFIR L, were found and discussed Experimentally, the curves of output power vers es gas pressure in NH3 and CH3OH F-P cavity lasers pumped by TEA-CO2 laser were measured, and the optimum operating gas pressure were obtained. The ex perimental results were in agreement with theoretical calculations.
