Main figure: map of the stable and linearly unstable region (inside contour), as a function of frequency/wavelength and the overall gain level in the active medium .
Inset: instability region width Δλ as a function of overall gain. Parameters: εb = 1.85 (ethanol solvent), ħω21 = ħω0 = 3.21 eV, ħΔ = 0.2 eV.
