Atomic and molecular spectroscopy with optical-frequency-comb-referenced IR coherent sources

Abstract

We provide a review of progress in the development of metrological-grade measurements in atomic and molecular systems through the extension, in the mid-infrared and far-infrared range, of optical frequency combs (OFCs) and the introduction of new techniques and highly coherent sources. © Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2013.
