Abstract
Absorption with inversion and amplification without inversion was studied in a coherently prepared V type system. The model system and the master equation used to derive the equations of motion for the elements of the density matrix was presented. Interference terms were shown to be the source for amplification without inversion and for absorption despite the inversion.
