1. Define Laser - coherent source of light
2. Characteristic properties of laser light - monochromatic, unidirectional, highly intense
and coherent

3. Full form of laser4. What is coherence - its two types - temporal n spatial (define and give significance)
5. Define - population inversion, lifetime of an energy state, metastable state
6. Principle of laser - Stimulated emission - emission which requires external help -
happens before the lapse of lifetime of energy state

7. Spontaneous emission - happens by itself after the lapse of lifetime of energy state8. Discuss Einstein theory of matter and radiations - relationship amongst various Einstein
coefficients - define Einstein Coefficients, give their physical significance and their units.
9. Give conditions of lasing action
10. Components of laser - (i) Laser medium (should be able to achieve population

inversion, can be solid, liquid, gas) (ii) Pump (device to supply energy to create populationinversion) - its types ( optical, electric discharge, electric, chemical) (iii) Optical Resonator
(composition - two plane parallel mirrors with common principal axis, one fully polished
and other is partially polished ; working - makes the photons oscillate between two
mirrors and number of photons grows, positive feedback device as well as help to select

excited state and upper lasing level (metastable state) separately defined eg Ruby laser
12. 4-level laser : All the four levels, ground state, lower lasing level, upper lasing level and
normal excited state separately defined. Continuous Output. e.g. He-Ne, CO
