Tunable mid-IR laser source: Cr2 + polycrystalline ZnSe Explanation: I'd agree with gael about 'tunable', and also, don't miss out the mid-IR. Note the -y- in 'crystalline' in EN ;-) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2013-03-28 17:34:17 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think in EN you can pretty much use IR and infrared at will, which is not perhaps so much the case in FR. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2013-03-28 22:48:25 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Yes, Germaine is right: after further research (hampered by numerous errors in online documents!), I have found that it is indeed "polycrystalline CR²+ ZnSe" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2013-03-28 22:50:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- This is one document that mentions soemthing similar (though apparently mistakes sulphur for selenium!): http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/login.jsp?tp=&arnumber=522435... "High-power, widely-tunable, continuous-wave polycrystalline Cr2+:ZnS laser" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2013-03-28 22:55:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- And why look'ee here, we even have a bilingual ref. for that chemical part: Cr2+:ZnSe polycristallin ; matériau laser pour le MIR ... - CAT - Inist http://cat.inist.fr/?aModele=afficheN&cpsidt=13854716 by S HERRIOT - 2002 - Titre du document / Document title. Cr2+:ZnSe polycristallin ; matériau laser pour le MIR = Polycrystalline Cr2+:ZnSe; laser material for MIR range. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2013-03-28 22:55:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Note, too, the use of MIR in both languages. |
