Abstract

The spiky structure of the spontaneous emission from praseodymium ions in the LaF3 lattice on the 3P0-3H6 transition under coherent pulsed excitation of the adjacent 3H4-3P0 transition has been studied experimentally and theoretically. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical conclusions based on analysis of the emission dynamics of an excited ensemble of three-level systems in the mean field approximation. The generation of a spiky structure is interpreted as the emission of a cnoidal wave pulse. The recorded random pattern of time intervals between the spikes reflects the sensitivity of the cnoidal wave period to fluctuations in the system. The developed theory has been found to be related to models of deterministic chaotic dynamics.
