Abstract :
A number of gases are reported that extend the range of CO2 laser lines able to be modulated by means of the molecular Stark effect. Data are presented on external modulation of the 
band in the 
branch by methyl fluoroform and in the 
branch by 1-1 difluoroethane. The gases fluoroethane, mono-methylamine, and methyl mercaptan and the vapors methanol and trichloroethylene are reported to modulate lines in the branch of the 
band.
