In stimulated emission process, we always assume that the secondary excited photon, as a result of e-h recombination, has the same frequency, polarization, phase and direction with the incident photon. The first three terms can be understood from phase matching criteria (coherency).... but for the last term, how can we explain and be sure about the direction of secondary photon? Are there any mathematical or physical description?
