Abstract
This paper contains the first part of a theory of coherent propagation of a light wave in semiconductors. In the framework of the single-electron band theory and with the neglect of the interaction between electrons, the equations describing the interband transitions induced by coherent light in semiconductors are similar to the Bloch equations for an inhomogeneously broadened two-level system in a light field. Special types of multi-photon processes which are the results of a combination of the interband and intraband transitions are predicted.
