Abstract

Laser system emitting within IR wavelength range from 2.5 to 16.57 micron is discussed. The hybrid laser system consists of molecular gas lasers with a frequency conversion in a nonlinear crystal. One gas laser is a carbon monoxide laser operating in multi-line or single-line mode. Another one is a carbon dioxide laser operating in multi-line mode. These lasers operate in a Q-switched mode. The laser emission is mixed in various nonlinear crystals producing sum and difference frequency conversion into above mentioned broadband IR spectral range.
