Scientific paper

Experimental studies on the energy storage characteristics of excited metastable species and theoretical analysis of optical energy extraction schemes based on stimulated two photon transitions are discussed. The feasibility of two photon amplifier is discussed with two proposed systems in atomic mercury and atomic iodine. The semi-empirical methods of gain calculation are described for the near-resonance case and the non-resonant case. The use of spherical tensor operator algebra and the evaluation of electric dipole matrix elements in the intermediate angular momentum coupling scheme are discussed. The experimental requirements for the proposed systems based on the calculated gains indicate that the currently available pumping methods and trigger laser sources may lead to a demonstration of two photon amplification and energy extraction.
