THE EXCITATION OF A GENERATOR-AMPLIFIER SYSTEM
Abstract
The authors calculate the emission produced by a generator-amplifier system with allowance for their mutual influence (i.e., the feedback between the generator and the amplifier), for different parameters of the active medium and of the resonator. The properties of such a system are compared with those of a system in which the quantum generator and the quantum amplifier are considered separately, so as to determine the region of parameters in which the feedback must be taken into account. The calculation is based on energy relations with allowance for the dependence of the gain of the active medium on the radiation density. The investigation shows that the mutual influence of the generator and the amplifier in such a compound system must be taken into account if the amplifier length is shorter than or equal to the length of the driver generator, or when the amplifying section is long but the reflection coefficients are close to the threshold values.
