Abstract
We have studied a laser system in which initially incoherent atoms are injected into a cavity and directly driven by a coherent pump field. Here we show that such a system can display optical bistability in the absence of population inversion. Two disconnected branches of the solutions are obtained for lasing action. They correspond to the inversion branch and inversionless branch, respectively. Also, a mechanism is proposed here to produce higher-power lasing by the inversionless laser.
