| Abstract: | Abstract An analysis is made of the effect of Doppler broadening on the gain in an open ladder inversionless lasing system. It is shown that for co-propagating probe and driving fields, the gain does not monotonously decrease or increase with increasing Doppler width, and at a suitable Doppler width one can obtain a maximum value much larger than that without Doppler broadening. For counterpropagating probe and driving fields, when the Doppler width is large enough, gain oscillation occurs, and the oscillation amplitude and region increase with increasing Doppler width. This conclusion is very different from that obtained in the corresponding closed system. |
