A fiill solution of tlie nonlinear radiation follows from the Maxwell equations. The general case of radiation from a second-order nonlinear material of finite thickness was solved by Bloembergen and Pershan in 1962 [40]. That problem reduces to the present one if we let the interfacial thickness approach zero. Other equivalent solutions involved tlie application of the boundary conditions for a polarization sheet [14] or the...

Both spin-lattice and spin-spin relaxation depend on rates of molecular motion, for relaxation results from the interaction of fluctuating magnetic fields set up by nuclei in the spin system and in the lattice. A quantitative theory of this dependence was given by Bloembergen et al., who obtained...

Here, the J terms are the spectral densities with the resonance frequencies co of the and nuclei, respectively. It is now necessary to find an appropriate spectral density to describe the reorientational motions properly (cf [6, 7]). The simplest spectral density commonly used for interpretation of NMR relaxation data is the one introduced by Bloembergen, Purcell, and Pound [8].

The widths of the lines in Fig. 3.1 vary because the anisotropies of g and A (to be discussed in Chapter 4) are not completely averaged out when the molecule or ion tumbles in solution. This issue was implicit in the classic work of Bloembergen, Purcell and Pound2a on nuclear spin relaxation and was formulated in a useful way for EPR by Daniel Kivelson and co-workers.2b d As described in Chapter 2, they showed that the widths, in units of Hz, can often be written as a power series in mr with terms up to second-order (a third-order term is sometimes significant) ... 

In Equations 4 and 5, A2 is the mean square ZFS energy and rv is the correlation time for the modulation of the ZFS, resulting from the transient distortions of the complex. The combination of Equations (3)—(5) constitutes a complete theory to relate the paramagnetic relaxation rate enhancement to microscopic properties (Solomon-Bloembergen Morgan (SBM) theory).15,16... 

The second kind of laser was built by one of my former students, Mirek Stevenson, and one of Bloembergen s former students, [Peter] Sorokin, at General Electric. The third kind of laser was built at Bell Laboratories by one of my students in microwave spectroscopy, Ali Javan. He worked with Bill Bennett [William R. Bennett, Jr.], one of Kusch s students, who had been working in microwave spectroscopy at Columbia. This new laser was the helium-neon gas laser, built by Javan, Bennett and [Donald R.] Herriott, who was an optical guy. The next type was a semiconductor laser, which was built at General Electric by [Robert N.] Hall.
