Abstract
Compressive stress is found to improve the characteristics of all type s of hot hole masers and lasers in p-Ge. Effects of the uniaxial stres s of p-Ge crystal on the FIR emission in both E parallel-to H and E pe rpendicular-to H fields are discussed. Mechanisms of the influence of uniaxial stress on the population inversion and the stimulated emissio n of hot holes are revealed.
