Abstract

When pumping produces atomic coherence on working levels or atomic polarization two-level atom can generate the light without inversion. In such systems one- and two-photon generation of the light is considered for the laser and micromaser operation. Using Lamb-Scully model generalized for coherent pumping statistics of the light is considered. Two-photon laser operation is found to be phase squeezed and perfect noise reduction can be achieved. In maser a set of steady state of subpoissian photon statistics is found. For these states the noise reduction up to 60 percent can be obtained if inversion is zero. Phase squeezing in micromaser is found.
