Lasers without inversion: Interference of lifetime-broadened resonances
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5486400
If two upper levels of a four-level laser system are purely lifetime broadened, and decay to an identical continuum, there will be an interference in the absorption profile of lower-level atoms; this interference is absent from the stimulated-emission profile of the upper-level atoms. Laser amplification may then be obtained without inversion. Examples include interfering autoionizing levels, and tunneling systems.
