“…1(a) and 1(b)] along the abscissa and the ordinate, respectively. The static deformationpotential constant obtained here is very close to the one determined from the piezospectroscopic effect, 12 while the dynamic one is close to the value obtained from thermal conductivity measurements. 8 The present results reconcile, therefore, the apparent discrepancy in the two values obtained from measurements in the two regimes a*q «1 and a*q<: 1.…”

“…Neutron-diffraction experiments supported the frozen-lattice model. 12 We report here our theoretical study on the influence of the magnetoelastic interaction on the long-wavelength magnon energies. The microscopic local-interaction model proposed by Evenson and Liu 5 is particularly suited for this study.…”

“…(1) and (3) to (5), we obtain the following expressions: The signs of A, to A, cannot be determined from intensity measurements. They are, however, uniquely defined by (4) and (6) to (9) if one takes the square roots as positive. Taking a to be negative [18] and the known values of the elasto-optic constants, we obtain the magnitudes and signs of A,, A,, A,, and A, given in Table 1.…”

The absolute cross-sections for Raman scattering in silicon measured at various frequencies in the visible spectrum by two different experimental techniques are reanalysed in the light of recent developments. Agreement between the results obtained by both the methods clears the discrepancies previously observed a t high frequencies. Experimental results are compared with theoretical calculations.Die absoluten Streuquerschnitte fur Raman-Streuung in Silizium, die bei unterschiedlichen Frequenzen im sichtbaren Spektrum mit zwei verschiedenen experimentellen Techniken bestimmt wnrden, werden im Licht neuerer Entwicklungen reanalysiert. nbereinstimmung zwischen den mit beiden Methoden erzielten Ergebnisaen kliirt die friiher bei hohen Frequenzen beobachteten Widerspruche. Die experimentellen Ergebnisse werden mit theoretischen Berechnungen verglichen.

“…The H3 center, on the other hand, may be formed abundantly by irradiation with 1-2-MeV electrons to doses of 1018-1020 electrons/cm 2 and annealing at 1200 K for 20 h in vacuum. 5 The exceptional properties of these centers, together with the high thermal conductivity, 8 excellent hardness, and high damage threshold of the host crystal, contributed to our initial interest in the laser potential of diamond color centers. Fluorescence linewidths and decay kinetics were measured in a total of 10 diamond samples to permit a comparison, given in Table 1, of gain coefficients expected for H3 and N3 centers in diamond with that of a representative center in alkali halides, namely, F 2 +:…”

Laser action at 530 nm using H3 centers in diamond was observed with an efficiency of 13.5% at room temperature. Optical double-resonance experiments on N3 centers provided direct evidence for a 2 A metastable level. Its presence results in rapid decay of the excited 2 E state and low quantum efficiency as well as significant excited-state absorption in the N3 luminescence region.Since the pioneering spectroscopy on FA (II) centers in KCl by Fritz et al. ,1 which led to construction of the first color-center laser by Fritz and Menke, 2 many efficient, widely tunable sources of coherent radiation based on defect structures in alkali halides have been developed. 3These ionic crystals have hitherto required cooling to cryogenic temperatures, however, both to prolong the shelf-life of laser-active centers and to achieve high quantum efficiency. While stable, tunable laser operation and Q switching using F-aggregate centers in LiF at room temperature have been achieved recently with special techniques, 4 in the work reported in this Letter we have followed a different approach to secure hightemperature operation. We have investigated substitutional impurities in a covalent crystal and have obtained efficient, visible laser action using H3 centers in diamond at room temperature. Diamonds contain a variety of color centers owing to the presence of impurity atom and vacancy complexes.
