Inversionless gain in a three-level system driven by a strong field and collisions
Inversionless gain in a three-level system driven by a strong external field
and by collisions with a buffer gas is investigated. The mechanism of
populating of the upper laser level contributed by the collision transfer as
well as by relaxation caused by a buffer gas is discussed in detail. Explicit
formulae for analysis of optimal conditions are derived. The mechanism
developed here for the incoherent pump could be generalized to other systems.Comment: RevTeX, 9 pages, 4 eps figure
