  • Abstract
    An analysis of the saturable absorption of SF6at 10.59 μ is presented. A model for the absorber is developed and experiments have been performed to determine the value of the saturation parameter. It is shown that at pressures above 0.1 torr, the saturation parameter varies linearly with the pressure and is governed by the relaxation time of the lowest level ν6. Effects of temperature on the absorption are discussed.
