Improving laser beam coherence - A concept

Laser frequencies may be reduced to single frequency or selected frequencies. For single frequency performance, spacing of frequencies falls in natural line width. For two or more frequencies, thicker spacing is used. Configuration adapts to operation with Kerr or Pockel cell for Q switching.

Interpolation constants for calculation of transmittance and rate of dissociation of molecular oxygen in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere

Values of band oscillator strengths and rotational line widths for the Schumann-Runge band system have been used to derive interpolation constants from which the transmittance and rate of dissociation of molecular oxygen can be calculated. These constants, valid for temperatures between 150 and 300 K and for column densities between 1 x 10 to the 17th power/cm sq and 7 x 10 to the 24th power/cm sq, cover the wavelength range 1750 and 2050A.

Photodissociation rates of molecular oxygen in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere.

Use of recently obtained band oscillator strengths and predissociation line widths, for the Schumann-Runge band system to calculate the photodissociation rate of molecular oxygen as a function of column density and temperature by solar radiation between 1025 and 2500 A. Data are presented from which the mean transmission and photodissociation rates for given wavelength intervals between 1750 and 2025 A can be calculated for column densities between 10 to the 17th and 10 to the 23rd molecules/sq cm and for temperatures between 150 and 300 K. Also, the production of vibrationally excited oxygen molecules as a result of fluorescence in the Schumann-Runge bands is discussed.
