摘要：

Recent experimental and theoretical achievements are reviewed on three types of laser oscillation in p-type germanium; the intervalence band (IVB) laser oscillation due to transitions between the light-hole band and the heavy-hole band, the light-hole cyclotron resonance (LHCR) laser oscillation, and the heavy hole cyclotron resonance (HHCR) maser oscillation. Described for the IVB oscillation are fundamental characteristics (such as the wavelength range of oscillation and the cooperation with higher-harmonic cyclotron resonances), the polarization characteristics of radiation and influence of uniaxial stress on the oscillation. The present status of the attempt at single line oscillation is also described. As for the LHCR oscillation, the formation of population inversion and the amplification are explained on the basis of quantum mechanical calculations of the valence bands in crossed electric and magnetic fields.
