Phys. Rev. A 54, 4359–4369 (1996)Intensity noise of injection-locked lasers: Quantum theory using a linearized input-output methodReceived 18 October 1995; published in the issue dated November 1996 We derive analytical expressions for the quantum-noise spectra of an atomic laser using a linearized input-output method. We generalize the method to the problem of injection-locked lasers. We identify three distinct spectral noise regimes in the solution, unifying previous results. The approach offers insights into the physical processes and is especially suited for comparison with experiment. The quantum spectral noise properties of the pump laser and the injected laser appear explicitly in the solution. © 1996 The American Physical Society. © 1996 The American Physical Society URL:
