Abstract: Active stabilization was achieved in a CO₂ laser with a diffraction selector in the resonator. This system made it possible to tune the P(18) and R(20) stimulated emission lines of the 10⁰0–00⁰1 transition so that the amplitude instability amounted to 0.5% in 14 min. The output power was about 1 W.
