Laser absorption spectroscopy
Vyhlídka, Štěpán ; Plašil, Radek (advisor) ; Hrubý, Vojtěch (referee)
Study of recombination of molecular ionts in cold plasma plays a key role in our understanding of chemical kinetics in interstellar space or in upper layers of planetar atmospheres. Various metods are used for its study of which important part is laser absorption spectroscopy. Concentration or temperature of measured ionts can be found from their absorption spectra. In the presented work two spectroscopic techniques are briefly introduced - Cavity ringdown spectroscopy and Laser induced reaction technique. Main me- chanisms for spectral linewidth broadening are described and from absorption spectra of H+ 3 and N+ 2 ionts measured by above-mentioned techniques their kine- tic temperature is discovered. Because it is affected by spectral width of applied laser diodes, a part of this work also deals with description of its measurement by self-heterodyne method or Fabry-Pérot interferometer. The spectral width is found for infrared diode DFB laser. 1

Low-coherence interferometry in industrial metrology
Buchta, Zdeněk
The paper describes an experimental arrangement for optical pumping of rubidium based on a high-power laser diode and high power lased diode array. The emission spectrum of the laser diode array was narrowed by external injection locking technique by means of cw Ti:Sa resp. an extended cavity laser (ECL) based on a high-power laser diode. The laser system was designed to be a crucial part of the HpXe (hyperpolarized xenon) production process.
