Abstract
We have observed stimulated emission of resonant acoustic phonons by Zeeman-split E ̄ ( 2 E) doublets in dilute ruby following local population inversion by selective optical pumping. The phonons generated reverberate in the crystal acting as an acoustic cavity, the phonon beam being amplified upon each passage through the active zone. The frequency spread of the avalanche is found to be 55 MHz .
