2. Q1: In case of He‐Ne laser working in your laboratory, the red line of 632.8
is transmitted from the 3S2 to 2P4 state as shown in the spectrum figure. The
pressure is 10 torr and the distance between the electrodes is 20 cm.
Determine the following:
1. The operational voltage
2. The small signal gain coefficient
3. The required pumping rate
For Helium – Neon laser, the following data can both be extracted from the energy – level
diagram and the literature:
The spontaneous lifetime . 0.7
The transition line width ∆ 1.5
The transition cross section 1 10
I. The operational voltage for laboratory He‐Ne laser is ℓ
Where:

Q2: For semiconductor laser the injected carrier concentration at balance between
emission and absorption Δ 1.25 10 . For ∆ the injected carrier
concentration near the operating point is equal to ∆ 1.4 ∆ and the
absorption coefficient 600 . Find the peak gain coefficient of such
laser. If the crystal length 350 , find the total gain.
