21. Although a more elaborated model based on the system of the Bloch equations which takes into account quantum many-particle effects has been developed in the literature [for instance, see E. Malic, T. Winzer, E. Bobkin, and A. Knorr, Phys. Rev. B 84, 205406 (2011)], the quasi-classical approach used here suffices for the qualitative analysis of the threshold behavior of the population inversion and negative dynamic conductivity. 10.1103/PhysRevB.84. 205406
