Abstract

The expression for inversion density in a gas laser includes an additional term if one allows elastic and/or resonant collisions among the active atoms. This term is a function of the line parametersγ 1, andγ 2 and describes the effect of homogeneous broadening on the saturated gain profile. Measurements of these parameters show that the homogeneous broadening in a 0.63 μm He-Ne laser plays an important role.
