Abstract: We illustrate some of the applications of coherent infrared spectrometers based on frequency conversion by difference frequency generation. We show that very high sensitivity molecular detection can be performed as well as sub-Doppler saturated spectroscopy. Moreover, we describe a setup that allows absolute frequency measurements in the infrared wtih metrological grade uncertainties.
