Differentiate between spontaneous and stimulated emission of light with diagram.
Spontaneous emission
|
Stimulated emission
|
Excited atoms comes to ground state on its own accord
|
Excited atoms comes to ground state after interaction with incident photon.
|
Radiations are in random direction , phase and wavelength
|
Radiations are coherent , monochromatic and in same direction.
|
Independent of outside circumstances
|
Dependent of outside circumstances
|
No metastable state exist
|
Metastable state exist
|
Number of photons emitted are less
|
Number of photons emitted are more
