  • Abstract
    A microlaser pumped by atoms in various initial states is studied in the unsaturated gain limit. It turns out that the greatest gain is achieved not by the inverted atoms but by the polarized atoms. Also the photon number fluctuation is smallest in case of the polarized state pumping.
