Abstract
We discuss a novel laser scheme in which N three-level atoms maintain full cooperativity in a stationary regime. The intensity I of radiatio n is proportional to N2, the linewidth scales as 1/N2, and the output intensity fluctuations display up to 100% squeezing at low frequencies . The possibility of simultaneously slowing down phase diffusion and r educing intensity fluctuations makes this kind of laser an attractive goal to go for.
