In stimulated emission how does the incident photon make release of other photon from another atom? advanced thanks.

Hi everyone! I will very thankful to whom can suggest me some texts or webpages where I can find a demonstrated explanation of why photons emitted by stimulated atoms travels in same direction of the photons which interact with the atoms. Every author says photons are coherent, same phase...

I am interested in learning the nature of the interaction between a photon and the atoms in a medium that has undergone population inversion that causes stimulated emission i.e. if an excited-state atom is perturbed by a photon (with an electric field of specific frequency), why does it emit an...

How to calculate the fraction of stimulated photons that escape from a laser cavity with alpha=0.1 cm^-1 length of cavity=1mm refractive index of laser cavity=3.2 the photons are assumed to be escaping into air so approx refractive index is 1. Im assuming that alpha is some sort of...

In a gas laser, an electron in the highest energy state absorbs photon for stimulated emission to occur, but now since it has more energy than its highest state, shouldn't it escape the atom and the active medium be left only with positive ions?

Hi. I can't see why the photon created by stimulated emission in a common laser should be in phase and with the same polarization of the original photon. Thank you.

I am trying to find an intuitive explanation for the stimulated emission phenomenon. I know the effect: a photon with the right frequency "interacts" with an excited electron to create a copy of itself( same phase, same amplitude, same state) putting the electron to a lower energy state... But...

Homework Statement Hi, I need to know the correct SI units for Einstein Coefficients (A and B) for stimulated emission (say laser). The equation I'm on about is Homework Equations \frac{A}{B} = \frac{8\pi h\nu^{3}}{c^{3}}The Attempt at a Solution after some scribbling I got to \frac{A}{B}...

Are spontaneous and stimulated emission selected by a Boltzmann's statistics ? Consider 2 levels(m,n) oscillators in thermal equilibrium with Einstein's coefficients Amn (spontaneous emission), Bmn (stimulated emission), Bnm (absorption) and r(f) the energy density at the frequency f (black...

In order to produce stimulated emission we need a photon which has the same energy as the difference is the lower and upper energy levels in the excited atom. But how exactly the energy of the photon does have to correspond to the energy difference between the levels. Can stimulated emission...

when some energy is suplied to an electron in a higher energy level E2 then how come it drops down to a lower energy level E1 but as per our knowlwdge of physics...it should jump to a higher energy level E3.
