Abstract In this paper we report on the determination of the spectral width of Raman gain regions for different far infrared laser gases using a metal mesh Fabry Pérot interferometer. By use of broadband pump radiation emitted from a high pressure CO2 laser we generated far infrared radiation within the Raman gain regions via stimulated Raman scattering. The spectral width of the far infrared radiation was determined using a Fabry Pérot interferometer in high interference order. We applied the method to study stimulated Raman scattering in D2O and methylfluoride at different gas pressures.
