Measurement of time dependent optical gain using frequency modulation spectroscopy
Abstract
Frequency modulation (FM) spectroscopy is demonstrated to be an attractive tool for gain analysis. It offers the three major features: a) potential high sensitivity in absolute gain measurement, b) high spectral resolution allowing the determination of the spectral gain profile, c) high temporal resolution capable of monitoring gain in short-pulsed systems. As an example, results of a gain analysis of the 6328 å line in a He-Ne discharge are presented. © 1982.
