Abstract

A smoothly tunable 1.432 μmNd:YAlO₃ laser was assembled for potential remote sensing of atmospheric CO₂ at high altitudes. Continuous laser tuning from 6982.8 to 6984.6 cm−¹ was demonstrated, and CO₂ absorption lines relatively free of atmospheric water absorption interference at 6983 and 6984 cm−¹ were experimentally observed, confirming feasibility of atmospheric CO₂ sensing.
