displays a laser oscillation spectrum of an AC’7 crystal. The structural formula of
AC’7 is shown in Fig. 9.8 together with other related organic semiconductors. Once
we choose an empirical formula of the wavelength dispersion [e.g., (9.101)], we can
determine constants of that empirical formula by comparing it with experimentally
decided data. For such data, laser oscillation spectra (Fig. 9.7) were used in addition
to the broadband emission spectra. It is because the laser oscillation spectra are
essentially identical to Fig. 9.6 in a sense that both the broadband and laser emission
lines gave the same free spectral range. Inserting (9.101) into (9.100) and expressing
n g as a function of λ, Yamao et al. got a following expression [6]:
