Coherent properties of the stimulated emission from a three-level atom

Abstract
First-order correlation functions of the electric field and photon-number probabilities in the case of a three-level atom interacting with two-mode radiation field are obtained to investigate the coherent properties of the stimulated emission under different initial conditions. It is found that double stimulation will cause the field to approach its initial coherent state and the oscillation of the photon-number probabilities to collapse and revive.
