Which mechanism drives spectral narrowing of pulsed laser light?

A)Self-phase modulation broadens the spectrum
B)Stimulated emission narrows linewidth photons
C)Spontaneous emission inhibits output power
D)Gain saturation increases linewidth intensity

💡 Explanation

Stimulated emission forces the emission to be coherent; therefore, spectral narrowing occurs because existing photons stimulate in-phase photon production through amplification, rather than spontaneous emission which would prevent coherence from arising.
