We consider the problem of resonance fluorescence from N two-level atoms interacting with an intense cavity mode. The novel results for the spectral and statistical properties of the fluorescence field, which are quite different from collective resonance fluorescence in a free space, are obtained. The correlation, anti-correlation between spectrum components and violation of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality are discussed.

The quantum nature of sidebands in resonance fluorescence from one as well as two coherently driven two-level atoms in a squeezed bath is studied by deriving expressions for intensity-intensity correlation functions and photon statistics that are phase sensitive. The nonexponential decay of the population inversion for the two-atom case is explicitly shown under certain conditions of parameters.
