  • Abstract
    The effect of low electric field Stark tuning on the absorption of CH3OH gas at the P(12) 9.4-\\mu CO2laser line has been studied. At the 220-mtorr CH3OH pressure optimal for CH3OH far-infrared (FIR) laser operation, the line center absorption coefficient increases by a factor of 5 with a Stark field of 2.3 kV/cm.
