Perfect absorber could be done in many ways like plasmon resonances.
Radiation energy is dissipated into heat as loss is enhanced at plasmon resonant frequencies. Oppositely, as an object or metamaterial device is heated, what kind of energy exchange mechanism involved, such as thermal radiation?
Might be useful to think of this semiclassically; take for example an LRC circuit and couple it alla the fluctuation-dissipation relations to a heat bath. The ensuing isentropic fluctuations in the system at equilibrium have power spectra peaked with the LRC's resonance. So, going further with this, one could as a first approximation, look at the how the isentropic fluctuation at a higher temperature for the LRC leads to a particular power spectrum of radiation at that temperature and compare it to the power spectrum it'd be getting back from the lower temperature environment (alla detailed balance that would be the same as the spectrum it would emit to the bath through dissipation in the resistor of the isentropic fluctuations at that lower temperature). Hope that may help your thinking!

The equilibration time, or the particle lifetime in a level, is
usually denoted by T1 and is called the longitudinal relaxation
time [4]. The quantity 1=T1 is the rate with which the
population difference between two states related by condi-
tion (1) returns to its equilibrium value as a result of energy
transfer from the particle ensemble to the thermostat [4, 5].
According to Ref. [5], both spontaneous emission [3] and
nonradiative relaxation make a contribution to T1. The total
time an atomic ensemble takes to completely lose the
excitation energy is, as a rule, close to T1. This proposition
is partly at variance with the first Bohr postulate, which states
that a closed electron orbit must be stable and that the
electron residing in this orbit does not radiate energy and
would stay in the orbit (level) for an indefinitely long time.
It is noteworthy that spontaneous emission as well as
nonradiative relaxation can occur when the light field acting
on the particles of the medium has already been turned off. In
the presence of a resonance light field, of significance are the
processes of stimulated emission and (stimulated) absorption
of the light field quanta.
When the density of a medium is high and the field is
absent, the role played by radiative transitions is negligible in
comparison with the nonradiative ones and the medium can
stay in the thermodynamic equilibrium. This implies that the
atoms obey the Boltzmann distribution [6] over the levels:
n2
n1
. exp
ÿ DE
kT
; .2.
where k is the Boltzmann constant, T is the temperature, and
n1 and n2 are the respective numbers of electrons in the lower
and upper transition levels.
Exposure of a medium to the light of an external source
can disturb the thermodynamic equilibrium of the medium.
In this case, the relation between the spontaneous emission
probability and the probabilities of absorption W12 and
stimulated emission W21 is characterized by a factor that
involves the spectral intensity of the incident radiation or its
spectral density with the constraint that the probabilities of
stimulated emission and absorption are equal [3, 6].
The problem of the role of nonradiative relaxation in the
processes under discussion was investigated by Karlov [4] on
the basis of the analysis of population variation in a two-level
system exposed to a resonance electromagnetic field. Accord-
ing to Ref. [4], the variation in the particle number density n2
in the upper level is given by
dn2
dt
. ÿ
w21 . 1
t1
n2 . w12n1 ÿW21n2 .W12n1 ; .3.
where w12 is the probability of a spontaneous electron
transition from the ground level to the excited one, w21 is the
nonradiative relaxation probability, and 1=t1 is the rate of
particle escape from the second level due to spontaneous
emission.
It is significant, and this is the central point of the present
paper, that irrespective of whether the ensemble has com-
pletely lost the excitation energy, the medium permanently
retains the memory of the existence of a transition between
the levels E2 and E1 and of the value of the Bohr frequency n21
[see relation (1)]. In other words, the Bohr frequency is an
invariable characteristic of the medium under investigation,
irrespective of whether the electron occupation of the
transition levels is equilibrium or nonequilibrium. Unam-
biguously related to the Bohr frequencies are the oscillators
(as a rule, these are the optical electrons of atoms, molecules,
mesoatoms, and nanoparticles) distributed over the volume
of the medium. The eigenfrequencies of these oscillators are
determined by elastic forces and are independent of the
external field frequency [7].
It is pertinent to note that in the absence of exact
resonance between the excitation field frequency n and the
Bohr frequency n21, which characterizes the two-level system
under study, stimulated electron transitions are effected
involving multiphoton processes, specifically, three-photon
electron Raman scattering (RS) [8 ± 10] and six-photon
parametric scattering (SPS) [10, 11]. We recall that an
elementary event of the three-photon process involves the
absorption of two photons of the exciting radiation at the
frequency n and the emission of a photon at the combination
frequency n3 (in the literature, this process is sometimes called
hypercombination or Raman [12] scattering). In the case of a
two-level medium characterized by the Bohr frequency n21,
the frequency n3 of the three-photon electron RS is, in
accordance with the energy conservation law, expressed as
n3 . 2n ÿ n21 .4.
(the factor h is omitted).
Several research groups have reported the experimental
observation of this process in Refs [8 ± 10], which give
bibliographic references to three-photon scattering. For
information about its theoretical treatment, the reader is
referred to Ref. [13].
In the case of SPS in a two-level medium, according to the
energy conservation law, the three absorbed photons of
exciting radiation correspond to the production of three
photons at new frequencies. The process should not violate
the equilibrium conditions in the medium. In this case, of
significance is the fulfillment of the momentum conservation
law for the six photons participating in the elementary
interaction event. This process was considered in Refs [10, 11].
3. The correspondence principle as an endeavor
to make full use of the notions of classical
theories
We now turn our attention to another point made by Niels
Bohr [14]. The point at issue is the complementarity and
correspondence principles. According to Bohr, there exists
the same relation of complementarity between the unequi-
vocal application of stationary states and the mechanical
analysis of intraatomic motion as between a light quantum
and the electromagnetic radiation theory. The correspon-
dence principle expresses the endeavor to harness the con-
cepts of classical theories (mechanics, electrodynamics) to the
highest degree, despite the contradiction between a light
quantum and the electromagnetic theory of radiation [14].
The aim of this paper is to interpret, in accordance with
the Bohr correspondence principle, the features of the
spectral structure of the medium-scattered (secondary)
radiation excited by the beams of resonance or near-
resonance light quanta (photons) and to search for the
universal rules for processes of this kind with the use of
the notions of the classical theory that pertain to the
resonance medium. As shown below, using the processes
that correspond to relation (4) or the like (see Section 4)
promotes a clear classification and interpretation of the
spectra of in-medium-scattered radiation and luminescence
402 V E Ogluzdin Physics ± Uspekhi 49 (4)
spectra, as well as light amplification. The proposed model
enables a valid explanation of several features of the
resonance and near-resonance interaction of monochro-
matic radiation with different (atomic, molecular, nanodi-
mensional) media.
In an endeavor to make the fullest use of the notions of
classical theories, we mention that the mechanical Lorentz
model of a classical harmonic oscillator exists precisely for the
description of the properties of an atomic (molecular)
medium [15].
Having discussed the Bohr frequency, the relation of
complementarity, and the Bohr correspondence principle,
we now recall that the electrons responsible for the optical
properties of a medium may be represented as an ensemble of
similar or variously sized classical harmonic Lorentz oscilla-
tors, which in turn requires invoking the results of the
dispersion theory [15, 16] related to these oscillators. Our
prime concern is with how a photon beam of monochromatic
radiation of frequency n interacting with a nearly resonance
medium can propagate through a medium that obeys the
dispersion laws. In the material media under investigation, an
ensemble of classical harmonic oscillators corresponds to
every Bohr frequency n21.
Our interest is with three different situations:
A) n . n21, n.n. ' 1,
B) n > n21, n.n. < 1,
C) n < n21, n.n. > 1,
where n21 is the resonance transition frequency, which
naturally corresponds to the Bohr frequency [see relation
(1)], and n.n. is the refractive index of the medium.
In case A, according to the dispersion theory, the
refraction index n.n. of the medium with a volume oscillator
distribution is close to unity [15, 16]. According to Ref. [15],
the reflection coefficient of this medium peaks at the
resonance frequency. When a population inversion is pro-
duced in the medium at the transition with the frequency n21,
radiation amplification is bound to occur.
In case B, a special feature limiting the photon propaga-
tion is related to the fact that the refractive index n.n. < 1,
according to the dispersion theory. The propagation of
photons of monochromatic radiation turns out to be
impossible in this spectral region, because otherwise they
would propagate with a supraluminal speed v . c=n.n. (c is
the speed of light in empty space), which is at variance with
the existing notions. Only by effecting the saturation of the
medium, i.e., the level population equalization of the
transition under investigation, is it possible to transmit the
radiation through this medium. Otherwise, according to
Ref. [15], efficient reflection of the incident radiation occurs
at the boundary of a medium with a volume distribution of
classical Lorentz oscillators.
Finally, in case C, according to the Sellmeier relation [16],
an unbounded growth of the refractive index n.n. occurs in
the low-frequency spectral region relative to the resonance
frequency. This circumstance may be responsible for a very
strong moderation of the photons that penetrate the medium
and may therefore impede their propagation.
4. Several experimental facts and their
discussion on the basis of the proposed model
The problem of the resonance and near-resonance interaction
of radiation with different media has attracted the attention
of researchers for a long time (Wood, Rozhdenstvenskii).
The systematic study of resonance interaction became
possible with the advent of frequency-tunable cw or pulsed
lasers. Analyzing the experimental results in this area of
research might seem impossible due to the extensive body of
publications. My task is to extract those results from the
wealth of experimental data which correspond to the multi-
photon model considered in the present paper. For this, I use
the published materials obtained with my participation, as
well as the findings of other researchers available in the
literature.
We enlarge on the experimental data that serve to
illustrate case A. Here, it is pertinent to recall Wood's
classical experiments (see Ref. [17]) in which he observed the
opacity of amedium (sodium vapor) to the incident resonance
radiation. With an increase in the density of the atomic
sodium vapor, the region of vapor glow shrinks to the point
of beam entry into a vapor-containing cell and, in the view of
the observer, turns into the glow of a thin atomic surface layer
(or into the reflection of light by an atomic surface layer).
That is, the forward propagation of monochromatic radia-
tion at the resonance frequency (n . n21) is limited. According
to Ref. [18], the opacity (strong attenuation) of the medium to
resonance radiation can be attributed, from the standpoint of
classical electrodynamics, to the high magnitude of the
scattering cross section s. In the case where the frequency of
exciting radiation coincides with the Bohr frequency of the
medium (n . n21), the scattering by bound atomic electrons
limits the directional radiation propagation through the cell
with an increase in density of the alkali metal.
When a two-level inverted system is irradiated by photons
whose frequency n is equal to the Bohr frequency of the
medium (n . n21), the scheme of stimulated (induced) emis-
sion of photons with the same frequency n is realized, which
was proposed by Einstein in 1916 [19]. The production of two
photons in an elementary event in an inversely populated
resonance medium with the simultaneous absorption of one
photon corresponds to the expression
n . n 0
21
. 2n ; .5.
identical to equality (4), where n . n 0
21 and n 0
21
. .E2 ÿ E1.=h
is the Bohr frequency of the inverted transition of the two-
level medium under investigation. Relation (5) uncovers the
mechanism of light radiation amplification involving the
doubling of the number of photons in every elementary
event. This process has found wide application in many
problems of quantum radiophysics and electronics related to
the amplification and production of coherent monochro-
matic radiation [4, 12]. Interestingly, even at the dawn of the
age of laser physics, the model of the classical harmonic
Lorentz oscillator that we invoke was employed in the
discussion of lasing [20].
We now turn to the analysis of experimental data that
serve to illustrate case B: n > n21, n.n. < 1.
From the situation whereby the propagation of photons
at the frequency n through the medium is limited in the
specified spectral range, it is possible to find a way out by
assuming the possibility of the production of a precursor [15],
which testifies to a change in the properties of the medium for
the photons that follow behind the leading edge of the beam.
The experimental data on the interaction of nearly resonance,
monochromatic radiation with atomic potassium vapor
carried out with the participation of the author of the present
paper [8, 10, 11, 21, 22] allow concluding that in the case of a
resonance (two-level) medium, the role of the precursor
April, 2006 The role of Bohr frequencies in the scattering, luminescence, and generation of radiation in different media 403
should be assigned to the photons whose frequency n3
corresponds to the above relation (4): n3 . 2n ÿ n21, where
n21 is the Bohr frequency of the medium. Because n3 > n and
n > n21 in this case, we have n.n3. > n.n.. Furthermore,
according to the dispersion theory [15, 16], we expect that
n.n3. ! 1 as the frequency increases, which removes the
limitation on the radiation propagation.
The observation of such processes in nearly resonance
conditions in atomic alkali-metal vapors was reported by
other researchers in Ref. [9]. Reference [9] contains a
bibliographic list of mainly experimental works dedicated to
the observation of three-photon process (4) in atomic media.
Indeed, as a result of process (4), equilibration of the level
populations of the medium investigated occurs (electrons are
transferred from the ground level 1 to the excited level 2),
which testifies to the formation of conditions in the medium
for the unimpeded transmission of the radiation at the
frequency n3 and immediately after at the frequency n. The
radiation with the frequency n3, which is successfully recorded
on spectrograms, is indication that the process is appreciably
intense [8, 9].
The illusory contradiction that follows from the smallness
of the estimated cross section s3 of the three-photon process
given in Ref. [12, p. 173] and its accessibility for observations
in atomic alkali-metal vapors [8, 9], is attributable to the fact
that the lower-order processes in a medium with a refraction
index n.n. < 1 are insignificant: they do not mask the
radiation at the frequency n3.
The self-focusing of laser beams with a Gaussian intensity
distribution over the beam section, which is observed in
alkali-metal vapors [21 ± 23] in this spectral region, according
to the model under discussion, may be represented as the
tunneling regime [22] for the photons with the frequency n
through the channel prepared by process (4). In conformity
with this process, the first to appear on the beam axis as the
precursors are photons with the frequency n3.
We next analyze case C (n < n21, n.n. > 1) with recourse
to available experimental data. First, we consider a medium
consisting of two-level atoms (by the example of atomic
potassium vapor [10, 11, 22]) and, second, the luminescence
observed in nanodimensional media [with the proviso that
n < nm1 and n.n. > 1, where nm1 are the eigen (Bohr)
frequencies of the nanodimensional oscillators of the med-
ium; m . 2; . . .] [24, 25]. According to Refs [24, 25], the
conditions required in case C [n < nm1, n.n. > 1] in the
presence of luminescence are automatically satisfied for the
set of Bohr frequencies nm1, which are located, as a rule, in the
blue (anti-Stokes) spectral region relative to the frequency n of
the exciting radiation. The luminescence spectrum itself is
shifted to the Stokes spectral region relative to n [4, 26].
It is pertinent to note that in the case of potassium atoms,
we are dealing with calibrated oscillators and an invariable
Bohr frequency for a given transition. In the case of the
luminescence of a nanodimensional (or molecular) medium,
due to the different dimensions of the nanoparticles we obtain
a set of Bohr frequencies nm1 (m . 2; . . .).
1. Therefore, for a medium of two-level atoms, expression
(4) for the three-photon electron RS is of the form
n3 . 2n ÿ n21, where the quantity n21 corresponds to the
Bohr frequency of the transition under investigation, n is the
exciting radiation frequency, and n < n12. In this case,
according to Refs [15, 16], n.n.41, which should lower the
radiation propagation velocity in this spectral region. For
laser radiation beams with a Gaussian intensity distribution
over the beam section, it has been possible to observe the
Vavilov ± Cherenkov effect in alkali-metal vapors in this
spectral region. This effect is caused either by the supralum-
inal propagation of the nonlinear polarization induced in the
medium [10] or by the propagation of supraluminal photons
through the resonance medium [11], which actually travel
with a speed that does not exceed the speed of light c. Owing
to process (4), which takes the Bohr frequency into account, a
channel in which n.n. ! 1 forms on the axis of the light beam
due to population equilibration, which furnishes the condi-
tions for Cherenkov radiation [27] with the use of this
unconventional supraluminal source.
In considering cases A, B, and C, it has been possible to
show that it is precisely the Bohr frequencies of a medium with
a volume distribution of classical harmonic oscillators that
define the properties of interaction of monochromatic
radiation beams with such media. For similar calibrated
oscillators of the medium (atomic alkali-metal vapor), the
experimental results are evident and are easily amenable to
interpretation. The process of nonradiative relaxation ensures
dissipation of the energy stored by the oscillators of the
medium due to process (4). We note that the Bohr frequencies
themselves are, as a rule, not recorded on spectrograms except
in the case of exact resonance (5), whereby n . n 0
21.
Therefore, experimental investigations into the propaga-
tion of laser radiation beams in a two-level atomic medium
confirm that process (4) plays the decisive role in the
interaction of laser radiation with the nearly resonance two-
level medium.
2. The situation is more complicated for a medium with a
volume distribution of oscillators with different dimensions.
In this case, the spectrum of Bohr frequencies is broader,
entailing a complication of the radiation spectra scattered by
the medium.
We address ourselves to one more phenomenon, specifi-
cally to the effect of fluorescence (fast luminescence) [26], and
consider the consequences of applying the proposed model to
this process. The reason for this approach is as follows: until
recently [24, 25], the relation between the observed spectra
and the specific oscillators of the medium was not taken into
account in the interpretation of the above effect. We try to
establish this relation. Relation (4) is rewritten as
nm . 2n ÿ nm1 ; .6.
where m . 2; . . . denotes the number of one of the numerous
frequency spectral components of the luminescent emission,
which consists of the frequencies nm and is scattered into an
angle of 4p steradians in a medium with a volume oscillator
distribution, and nm1 . .Em ÿ E1.=h are the characteristic
Bohr optical frequencies for electrons (of a complex organic
molecule or a nanodimensional particle) embedded in one or
other environment. This environment is, as a rule, size-
noncalibrated aggregates of different dimensions consisting
of some combination of atoms, molecules, or fragments of a
crystalline structure with numerous defects. In accordance
with the problem formulated, we should show how the Bohr
frequencies nm1 of suchlike aggregates are related to the
luminescence spectrum. As in the case of a two-level atom,
we reason about the necessity of borrowing a part of the
medium-exciting radiation to effect the dynamic compensa-
tion of the dispersion of refractive indices of individual
oscillators in the medium, which turn out to have different
dimensions in this case [n.nm1. ! 1]. In our view, relation (6)
describes this process, as evidenced by the luminescent
404 V E Ogluzdin Physics ± Uspekhi 49 (4)
emission at the frequencies nm. In the recently published
papers [24, 25] of the present author, the luminescence of
silicon nanoparticles suspended in ethanol is described in
detail employing the present approach.
Upon discussing the problems related to resonance and
near-resonance media and the Bohr frequencies, we have to
revert to relation (3) considered in Section 2. The relevant case
pertains to the absorption W12 and stimulated emission W21
probabilities. Clearly, these quantities should take the three-
photon processes (4) ± (6) considered above into account [11].
5. Conclusion
We have considered several practical problems of scattering,
light amplification, and luminescence in resonance or nearly
resonance media with a volume distribution of classical
oscillators. The eigenfrequencies of these oscillators corre-
spond to the complete set of Bohr frequencies of the media
under investigation. The properties inherent in the interaction
of light quanta beams with such media are described.
Irrespective of whether the conditions for exact resonance
between the exciting radiation frequency and the Bohr
frequency of the medium are satisfied, the participation of
three photons in an elementary radiation ± medium interac-
tion event ensures the ground-to-excited (or vice versa)
oscillator state transition. The correspondence principle and
the Bohr principle of complementarity, which express the
endeavor to utilize the concepts of classical theories
(mechanics, electrodynamics) to the highest degree, in the
above-considered example are directly related, on the one
hand, to the quantum properties of light radiation and on the
other hand to the mechanical properties of the classical
harmonic Lorentz oscillator and the dispersion theory.
Using relations (4) ± (6) facilitates the identification of the
spectral structure of the radiation scattered by a resonance or
nearly resonance medium in different directions. On the one
hand, the question arises of how closely the exciting radiation
frequency n can be brought into coincidence with the
frequency n21 or nm1 of the transition under investigation.
On the other hand, in the case of a so-called nearly resonance
interaction (both for two-level atoms and for luminescence),
it is not necessary to be concerned about the exact coincidence
of the frequency n with the Bohr frequency n21. Recording the
output radiation at the frequency n3 (nm) in an experiment
with a resonance or nearly resonance medium supports the
proposed scheme. It is noteworthy, however, that the
experimental detection of radiation with the Bohr frequency
n21 or nm1 in the absence of exact resonance, as a rule, turns
out to be difficult or impossible, for instance, due to
nonradiative relaxation. Experimental data nevertheless
allow calculating this frequency.
Relations (4) ± (6), which are borne out in numerous
experiments on the amplification and scattering of laser
radiation, the interaction of laser radiation with nearly
resonance two-level media, and the fluorescence of nanodi-
mensional particles, have a universal nature in our view.
There is good reason to apply this law for the interpretation
of experiments in atomic, molecular, and nanodimensional
media. Special emphasis should be placed on the role played
by the Bohr frequencies n21 (nm1), which are integral
characteristics of the medium under investigation. In parti-
cular, using this rule in fluorimetric analysis provides an
independent expert evaluation of the characteristic frequen-
cies of the intrinsic oscillators of the medium investigated.
Reverting to the notion of elementary classical oscillators of
the medium, which are responsible for the Bohr frequencies,
seems to be expedient in the study of the above-listed media
and processes, because it enables gaining new information
about the characteristics of the medium.
The author expresses his deep gratitude to V I Kogan for
his support of the ideas in this paper concerning the practical
analysis of the data of a physical experiment.
