Abstract
Methods of generating a sharp absorption line within an inhomogeneously bro adened line are discussed. A hole-burning technique using transients is pre ferred. This method which employs two opposite phased pulses, one long and one short is demonstrated and a 50 kHz wide absorption feature is isolated within an optical transition of Eu3+ in Y2SiO5.
