This topic covers the various methods used to pump the laser medium to achieve population inversion, including optical pumping, electrical pumping, and chemical pumping.
Laser Pumping Mechanisms 1. Introduction Laser pumping is the process of providing energy to the laser medium to achieve population inversion. Population inversion is a condition where more atoms or molecules are in the excited state than the ground state. 2. Types of Laser Pumping Mechanisms Optical Pumping: Involves using light to excite the atoms in the laser medium. Electrical Pumping: Invo...…
