A considerable number of recent papers is devoted to the detection of infrared radiation by combining its frequency with the frequency of laser radiation in a nonlinear crystal [1 4]. Such a conversion can be a more sensitive method of observing IR radiation than direct detection with standard IR receivers [5] ·
