Remote Backward-Propagating Water Lasing in Atmospheric Air Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • 2016 OSA. We demonstrate backwards lasing from atmospheric air humidity. The 656nm stimulated emission is obtained via two-photon excitation of atomic hydrogen created from water dissociation. The hydrogen lasing can be used for standoff optical gas detection.
