An electrical discharge excites the He atom from its ground state (arbitrarily assigned the energy E1 = 0) to its excited state of 20.61 eV. The excited He atom collides with a Ne atom in its ground state and excites this atom to the state at 20.66 eV. Lasing action takes place for electron transitions from E3 to E2 in the Ne atoms.
