Abstract

The general expression of the output-light Mandel parameter(xi) _out is obtained in case of purely absorptive bistability, for arbitrary value of (xi) _in of incident light. Calculations are based on stochastic rate equations. No adiabatic elimination of atomic variables is made; the coherent nature of 'incoming' of incident photon is into a cavity is correctly taken into account. On condition of bistability, although the strongly sub-Poisson input-photon statistics generally reduces the output noise as compared to the case of coherent input, the inequality (xi) _out > 0 still near the switching points.
