Generation of radiation on forbidden transitions in the region of 654-658 nm in an acoustoplasmic medium

Abstract

Abstract In the region of the first positive system (FPS) band of spectrum of nitrogen in acoustoplasma, under laboratory conditions, the generation of intense lines was experimentally obtained at forbidden transitions of a singly ionized nitrogen molecule at 654.81 and 658.36 nm. The intense lines obtained correspond to the stimulated emission mechanism. The intensity of the forbidden lines significantly (up to 17 times) exceeded the intensity of neighboring lines in the spectrum of the first positive system band of nitrogen. Spectroscopic studies did not allow resolution of the rotational spectrum. However, the spectral width for both lines at forbidden transitions is much smaller than the FPS bandwidth of nitrogen. The result obtained is explained by an analogue of Raman scattering and an acoustoplasmic medium, which remove the prohibitions characteristic of dipole radiation.
