Abstract
Stimulated emission of radiation from CdxHg1−x Te samples pumped by a Nd:YAG laser at temperature T≈77 K is obtained. Both spontaneous and stimulated emission is observed for the wavelengths λ in the range 3300–3600 nm. Experimental emission spectra are presented. The special features of the spectra and the possible applications of the structures are discussed.
