15. Stimulated emission in continuous-wave PDC by classical incoming light was studied by Z. Y. Ou, L. J. Wang, X. Y. Zou, and L. Mandel [Phys. Rev. A 41, 1597 (1990)].
16. Stimulated emission in pulsed PDC was also considered by F. De Martini [Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 2842 (1998)] for a different purpose, namely, the generation of Schrödinger cat states. In the meantime, first experimental results have been presented [V. Mussi and F. De Martini, in Proceedings of ni Adriatico Research Conference on Quantum Interferometry, Trieste, 1999 (to be published)].
