Foreign gas broadening coefficients of the R(42) and P(13) transitions in the nu(1) band of N2O near 1285 cm(-1) have been measured at a spectral resolution of similar to 5 x 10(-4) cm(-1) using tunable diode laser spectrometry. Ar, He, N-2, and O-2 were used as the broadening gases. In order to determine the temperature dependence of the broadening coefficients, data were obtained at temperatures ranging from 154 to 294 K.
