Summary
This second bi-monthly progress report on the Scalable Nanosecond CO/sub 2/ Laser Technology Program covers work performed from November 8, 1976 to January 7, 1977. Under Task I - Saturable Absorber Studies, small signal absorption measurements over the 9 and 10 ..mu.. bands were carried out on various molecules to determine their potential as gain isolators. Saturation and relaxation experiments are being set-up to further evaluate some of these absorber media. Continued modeling and theoretical analyses of saturable absorber media under Task II - Theoretical Studies are providing the necessary inputs in the selection of various molecules. Under Task III - Flowing Saturable Absorber Device, the flow-field structure of gain and absorber regions was studied. A species concentration probe is being built to determine the amount of contamination of the gain medium by saturable absorber medium due to mass diffusion in the mixing layer. The nanosecond CO/sub 2/ oscillator is being readied under Task IV - Nanosecond CO/sub 2/ Oscillator to conduct saturation experiments of candidate saturable absorber media under both single and multi-line conditions.
