  • Abstract
    The generation of short CO2 laser pulses is achieved in several ways such as the optical free induction decay (OFID) technique. The OFID technique is a relatively simpler mechanism of generating short pulses and easily invites further study of the technique. The present work involves the interaction of the rising edge of a pulsed CO2 laser with ammonia and Dymel in an effort to generate an OFID pulse
