  • Abstract
    An effect that is opposite to saturable absorption in the infrared was observed when a CO2laser beam was passed through SF6. An increase of absorption occurred when the radiant flux of the laser was increased to 10 W/cm2. The effect was observed for the P(28) line of the 00\\deg 1-10\\deg 0 band of the CO2laser, and was attributed to absorption from excited vibrational states of SF6.
