摘要: Abstract Measurements performed on intracavity polarization modulation in an optically-pumped far-infrared laser are presented. The experimental work is a preparatory first step towards the development of polarimeter diagnostic system for plasma physics applications. present utilizes CO2 whose output state modulated using CdTe crystal placed within sinusoidal magnetic field. corresponding amplitude determined, and results obtained good agreement with Verdet coefficient previously reported.
