LASER • L ight • A mplification • • • C. H. Towns, 1954 by S timulated E mission T. H. Maiman, 1960 Noble prize, 1964 of R adiation

Coherence
Coherence • Temporal coherence Coherent length l 0 = λ 2/Δλ = c. T 0
Spatial Coherence L should be smaller than λD/a
Spatial and Temporal Coherence Beams can be coherent or only partially coherent (indeed, even incoherent) in both space and time. Spatial and Temporal Coherence: Temporal Coherence; Spatial Incoherence Spatial Coherence; Temporal Incoherence Spatial and Temporal Incoherence
Monochromaticity • Degree of non monochromaticity τ = Δν/ν = c/l 0ν=1/νT 0 • Quality factor = λ/Δλ = l 0/λ Ideally coherent: same energy, momentum, polarization
Absorption and Emission • Excitation potential and critical potential
Stimulated Absorption • Energy is absorbed by an atom, the electrons are excited into vacant energy shells.
Absorption E 1 E 2
Spontaneous Emission • The atom decays from level 2 to level 1 through the emission of a photon with the energy hv. It is a completely random process.
Spontaneous Emission
Stimulated Emission atoms in an upper energy level can be triggered or stimulated in phase by an incoming photon of a specific energy.
Stimulated Emission
Stimulated Emission The stimulated photons have unique properties: – In phase with the incident photon – Same wavelength as the incident photon – Travel in same direction as incident photon
Electron/Photon Interactions
WHY WE NEED META STABLE STATE? ANSWER IS With having the metastable state above the ground level. Atom reaches the meta stable state (after first stimulated emission) can remain there for longer time period. So the number of atom increases in the meta stable state. And when these atoms come back to the original ground level it emits laser beam.
Einstein’s Coefficients
Spontaneous emission A 21 : - correspond to spontaneous emission probability per unit time This particular emission can occur without the presence of external field E(v)
Stimulated Absorption
Stimulated Emission B 21 : - correspond to stimulated emission probability per unit time This type of emission can occur in presence of external field E(v) only
Total Emission Probability Spontaneous Emission + Stimulated Emission A 21 + B 21 E(v) Number of atoms that can jump from level E 2 to E 1 is
Total Absorption Probability
Equilibrium condition In case of energy states the number of electron absorbed and emitted should be equal or the rate of change of numbers of atoms in two states should be equal.
The rate of change of atoms in E 2 It can be given by differentiation (probability) or
At Equilibrium Then
Emission and absorption are same
Maxwell Bolzman Distribution In thermal equilibrium
So the equations become So equation becomes
Planck’s Radiation Law Plank’s gives the formula that how a gas radiate energy.
Einstein’s Coefficients Einstein gives a probability that stimulated emission is same as absorption. Means that if a stimulated absorption can occur then there is same probability that stimulated emission can occur.
After comparing with Planks Radiation Law And
Conclusions • Stimulated emission have same probability as stimulated absorption • Ratio between spontaneous and stimulated emission varies with v 3 • All we need is to calculate one of the probability to find others.
BASIC PRINCIPLE NEEDED FOR LASER
POPULATION INVERSION • A state of a medium where a higher-lying electronic level has a higher population than a lower-lying level
PUMPING • The method particle of raising a particle from lower energy state to higher energy state is called pumping. • TYPES OF PUMPING : 1. Optical pumping 2. Electrical pumping 3. X-ray pumping 4. Chemical pumping
LASER COMPONENTS All lasers have 3 essential components: • A lasing or "gain" medium • A source of energy to excite electrons in the gain medium to high energy states, referred to as "pump" energy • An optical path which allows emitted photons to oscillate and interfere constructively as energy is added or "pumped" into the system, ie, a resonator
