9 Questions
What is the primary mechanism by which photons are produced?
Induced emission
What is the fundamental principle underlying stimulated emission?
Conservation of energy
Which of the following best describes the process of stimulated emission?
An electron moves to a lower energy level, and a photon is emitted
What is the term for the process by which an excited atom releases a photon spontaneously?
Spontaneous emission
What is the significance of the principle of energy conservation in stimulated emission?
