Optical gain in rotationally excited nitrogen molecular ions
We pump low-pressure nitrogen gas with ionizing femtosecond laser pulses at 1.5 mu m wavelength. The resulting rotationally excited N-2(+) 2 molecular ions generate directional, forward-propagating stimulated and isotropic spontaneous emissions at 428 nmwavelength. Through high-resolution spectrosco...
