The generated radiation exhibits a high degree of squeezing in the minus quadrature either for a weak or strong driving radiation. In general, the degree of squeezing and mean number of photon pairs increase with the linear gain coefficient and squeeze parameter. The driving radiation leads to squeezing of the cavity radiation even when ´ = 0 and ´ = 1. Moreover, it is found that there is no distinct difference between the probability for finding odd and even number of photon pairs in the cavity. In addition, the mean number of photons in mode a turns out to be greater than that in mode benA Nondegenerate Three-LevelA Nondegenerate Three-Level Cascade Laser Coupled to a Two-Mode Squeezed Vacuum ReservoirThesis
