Abstract :
The commentators show that when the anisotropy of microcrystals is properly taken into account, the saturation intensity, the homogeneous linewidth, and the bleaching magnitude as a function of pump intensity can be obtained from the analysis of the experimental results of N. Peyghambarian et al. (see ibid., vol.25, p.2516-22, 1989)
