Applications of Stark cells to CO2 laser communication

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The availability of Stark tunable molecular absorption lines coincident with CO2 laser transitions has led to several applications in laser communications. Three applications are described here: (1) frequency stabilization of a CO2 laser; (2) a technique for direct demodulation of an optical FM signal; and (3) a method for producing single sideband ir modulation at microwave frequencies.
