摘要
Effects of frequency pulling and competition of counterrunning waves have been demonstrated experimentally in a ring CH3OH laser (lambda = 118.8-mu-m) bidirectionally pumped by the CO2 laser radiation. Different lasing modes have been revealed which are characterized by independent existence of two counterrunning waves, energy transfer from one wave to another and suppression of one of the waves. Counterrunning wave frequency splitting up to 190 kHz has been achieved without the use of nonreciprocal elements in the resonator. Dependences of the difference frequency on the relationship of counterrunning pump powers, the CO2 laser frequency and the ring resonator eigenfrequency are explained in terms of the model of the gain profile formation.
