Point contacts between high anisotropy ferromagnetic SmCo _5 and normal metal Cu are used to achieve a strong spin-population inversion in the contact core.Subjected to microwave irradiation in resonance with the Zeeman splitting in depileve easy clean Cu, the inverted spin population relaxes through stimulated spin-flip photon emission, detected a
