  1. Spontaneous Emission: When an excited atom or molecule releases a photon, it undergoes spontaneous emission. This process occurs randomly and results in the emission of a photon in a random direction.
  2. Stimulated Emission: When a photon interacts with an excited atom or molecule, it can cause the excited atom or molecule to release a photon of the same energy and direction as the incident photon. This process is known as stimulated emission.
  3. Absorption: When a photon interacts with an atom or molecule in the ground state, it can be absorbed, causing the atom or molecule to become excited.
