Abstract: | In order to stabilize the 118.8 μm CH3OH laser output, frequency stabilization of the CW 9P(36) CO2 laser pump is carried out using external CH3OH Stark-cell modulation without internal frequency modulation. The CO2 laser output power around the CH3OH absorption center is stabilized to within ±1.0% for 60 min. The frequency stability of the CO2 laser is estimated to be within ±1.4 MHz for 60 min, assuming the output fluctuation to be caused by this frequency fluctuation. As a result of the CO2 pump laser stabilization, an output power stability of about ± 1.0% for 30 min is obtained for the 118.8 μm CH3OH laser. |
