Define: Optical pumping & Population Inversion. 

1 Answer

Answer :

Optical pumping:- The process of raising the atoms from lower energy state to higher energy state using light medium is called optical pumping. 

Population inversion:- Making the population of higher energy level more than population of lower energy level by using light energy is called population inversion.
