Probing gas-phase collisional energy transfer with picosecond laser spectroscopy

Settersten, Thomas B.

Effects of gas-phase collisions on active optical sensing and use of picosecond laser spectroscopy for their characterization are reviewed. Additionally, novel time-resolved approaches to reduce collisional sensitivity and to exploit species-dependent collision rates are discussed. ©2009 Optical Society of America.
