351 Mishchenko, EugeneKinetic theory of shot noise in nondegenerate diffusive conductorsWe investigate current fluctuations in nondegenerate semiconductors, on length scales intermediate between the elastic and inelastic mean free paths.

353 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineLaser action in conducting polymersWe discuss both cooperative radiation and stimulated emission and consider their role in spectral narrowing of luminescent conducting polymers. We argue that cooperative radiation is favored in films with poor optical confinement. On the other hand, directional stimulated emission can be observed in...Laser action; Cooperative radiation; Stimulated emission; PPV; Disubstituted polyacetylene; Excitons; Spectral narrowing; Plastic lasers; Superfluorescence; Microcavity lasers1997
