Abstract
A simple model of a one-dimensional optical cavity having output coupling is used to develop a fully quantized linear laser theory. The present model and procedure, which work directly within the continuous spectrum, allow us to find a simple treatment that leads to explicit solutions for the field inside and outside the laser cavity. The threshold condition for laser light onset is obtained by assuming the field operating in a single collective mode and the usual adiabatic hypothesis. A development that removes this later restriction is also discussed and outlined.
