Abstract

A laser heterodyne spectrometer for the 10 μm region has been built. A 5 MHz apparatus function is obtained. The improvement of this spectrometer using a dual-beam technique is described. The folding effects in heterodyne spectroscopy are discussed. The recorded lineshapes are explained. An ethylene spectrum is shown as an example.
