Title: Dye-laser fluctuations: Comparison of colored loss-noise and white gain-noise models

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. A; (United States)

A single-mode dye-laser model incorporating pump white noise through gain-parameter fluctuations is analyzed. It includes a fluctuating saturation term. Intensity fluctuations, a first-order-like transition, and intensity correlation functions are calculated and discussed. It is found that effects previously claimed to be a consequence of the presence of colored noise in the context of loss-noise models can be also explained by white gain noise, except for the existence of two time regimes in the early decay of intensity correlation functions.
