A 3 mu m difference frequency laser source for probing hydrocarbon plasmas

The practicality of a compact solid-state laser-based difference frequency generation system is demonstrated as a tool for probing hydrocarbon-based plasmas. The laser light of a cw Nd : YAG operating at 1064 nm and one of two distributed feedback diode lasers operating at 1560 and 1620 nm were mixe...
