摘要：

A technique is proposed for inverting atoms and molecules with respect to the ground state. The process is based on simultaneous excitation of colliding species by absorption of a photon. Visible wavelength lasers with millijoule energy outputs and several nanosecond pulse widths should be capable of demonstrating inversion of resonance lines in high-density metal-vapor mixtures.
