Abstract

A dilute gas of I(²P^o_{1 2}) atoms serves as a medium for optical third harmonic generation (THG) of wavelengths a little shorter than 206.2 nm, the wavelength of an atomic transition. It is also shown that a gas of the polyatomic molecule CH₃I exhibits THG at wavelengths slightly longer than the first Rydberg transition at 201.2 nm. It is believed that this is a general phenomenon for molecules with sharp Rydberg transitions.
