Abstrakt: Conclusion The investigations into lasers constructed in the submillimeter and infrared regions showed satisfactory results for their use in absolute frequency measurements. The fast-response nonlinear elements — W=Si and W=Ni point diodes — have been tested in the multiplier-mixer mode from 337 to 10 µ exclusively. The frequencies have been measured of the molecular lasers HCN (?=337 µ), D2O (?=84 µ), H2O (?=28 µ) and the P(14) CO2 (?=10.53 µ) and R(30) (?=10.18 µ) lines. The measurement error of 5·10-7 was determined by the indeterminacies of fixing the peak of the laser generation lines. An increase of the measurement accuracy will be achieved by the mutual tying in of the laser frequencies to one another.
