Abstract
The Maxwell equations for the field in a cavity are modified to include the effect of irradiation by a reservoir of two-level atoms. A canonical treatment of the time-dependent field modes leads to predictions of the changes in the electric and magnetic field intensities, and in the photon statistics, for sufficiently small times. Coherent states evolve to squeezed states. The frequency converter and possible resonance phenomena are discussed.Keywords
