Towards a New Formulation of the Theory of Spontaneous and Stimulated Emission

泰勒教授提出了一个新的理论，挑战目前持有的 在占最小可达到的光谱线宽的想法， 单模半导体二极管激光器 他指出 亨利（贝尔实验室）目前接受的理论-首次提出， 1982年，并自那以后由其他人详细阐述-具有某些影响 这违反了能量守恒的原则。 泰勒教授 一个假设处理自发和受激发射过程中， 符合节能的方式，并提供了问题， 光子场中的随机相位波动。

Professor Taylor proposes a new theory that challenges currently held ideas in accounting for the minimum attainable spectral linewidth of single mode semiconductor diode lasers. He points out that the presently accepted theory of Henry (Bell Labs) - first proposed in 1982, and since elaborated on by others - has certain implications which violate the principle of energy conservation. Professor Taylor's hypothesis treats spontaneous and stimulated emission processes in a way consistent with energy conservation and provides for the problem of random phase fluctuations in the photon field.
