Abstract

Optical coherent transients are reported here for the first time in a pure, optically concentrated material (Eu

P_{5}

O_{14}

). Qualitatively new behavior is found in the form of a systematic variation of the homogeneous dephasing time

T_{2}

(∼ 20 μsec) across the inhomogenously broadened line. This is interpreted as evidence for delocalization of the excitation. In contrast, the dilute impurity system

{Eu}^{3 +}

: YAl

O_{3}

shows narrower lines and no frequency dependence of

T_{2}
