The present invention relates to (1) a MASER (microwave or molecular amplification by stimulated emission of radiation) that can operate effectively in environments as warm as (but not limited to) typical room temperature and pressure, comprised of (i) pump to provide energy through electricity or electromagnetic waves, (ii) a resonator cavity, (iii) an output coupler, (iv) supporting structural material, and (v) a gain medium of guest and host molecules selected and configured so as to allow for emission in desired frequencies such as those widely recognized for wireless communication (between 3 MHz and 300 GHz) and those desired for wireless power transmission (including but not limited to 2.45 GHz and 5.8 GHz); along with (3) a method for absorbing energy such as (but not limited to) harnessing ambient light (including but not limited to solar radiation) and storing such light for purposes of generating a sufficient charge to provide a pump source for the MASER; (4) a method for adjusting the value of the energy gap between the lowest and highest triplet sublevels of the gain medium at will so as to allow for rapid frequency tuning as desired; (5) a method of re-pumping excitons from the lower triplet sublevel to a higher energy level; along with (6) a method of collimating and focusing energy output as parallel electromagnetic waves; plus (7) a method for steering waves in desired directions; and (8) a method for enabling two or more devices to exchange information including but not limited to geographic coordinates, angle of orientation, velocity, acceleration, yaw, pitch, and roll, in order to directly and efficiently exchange electromagnetic waves.
An improved maser of the type producing an output signal and having a pump and resonator chamber containing a gain medium, the gain medium comprising molecules capable of excitation to one or more excited singlet states wherein excitons are present and further being capable of undergoing inter-system crossing to a triplet state having three sub-levels, the improvement comprising:
