Photochemistry

a strongly nonlinear upconversion process in which weak ground-state absorption and cross-relaxation build excited-state populations above a pump threshold.

In photochemistry, photon avalanche refers to a strongly nonlinear upconversion process in which weak ground-state absorption and cross-relaxation build excited-state populations above a pump threshold. This meaning comes from Chivian (1979) in Applied Physics Letters.[1]
