Abstract
We present a detailed derivation of the master equations for coherently prepared degenerate
and nondegenerate three-level lasers coupled to vacuum reservoirs. Employing
these equations we analyze the squeezing properties of the cavity radiation and the output
radiation. We find that under certain conditions squeezed light can be generated. The
same equations are also used to study the photon statistics for the two systems. We see
that the distribution functions have the same form as the one for the signal mode from
parametric oscillators
