← ScienceWhich consequence results when optically pumped atoms undergo population inversion?
A)Gain from stimulated emission rises✓
B)Spontaneous decay diminishes substantially
C)Absorption peaks broaden to cutoff
D)Refractive anomalies disappear entirely
💡 Explanation
Gain from stimulated emission will rise, because population inversion creates more opportunity for photons to stimulate emission through the process of light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation (LASER), therefore gain sharply escalates, rather than spontaneous decay weakening.
