Laser theory with natural inclusion of radiation loss: Density-operator approach
Keyword(s):
A recent result of a previous paper describing the field loss in an optical cavity in a natural way is applied to laser theory. The field loss, due to the transmitted beam light, and the field gain, now attributed to the presence of active atoms but previously attributed to two noninteracting mechanisms, are correctly added to provide the equation of motion for the density operator of the radiation field. The replacement of individual operators, which appear in the conventional treatment, with collective operators is a conceptual difference that emerges from the present approach.
