Abstract
CS2 laser with optical pumping has been offered for obtaining powerful T-rays. As a pumping source CO2 laser oscillating on the hot band (wavelength 11.4 mum) has been used. Calculations have shown that at the optimal conditions the output 0.1 J at the peak power 1 MW can be obtained. The spectral tuning (2-3 THz) over the ro-vibrational lines is possible.
