Abstract
We present a method of generating two-mode single atom laser based on the nonresonant interaction of a three-level Λ type atom in a two-mode cavity with three strong classical driving fields. An analytical solution for this effective dynamics under the presence of the cavity losses is obtained, which allow us to analyze the entanglement properties and the photon statistics of the two cavity modes exactly. It is also shown that the possible generation of the two-mode entangled coherent states in the transient regime after the atomic measurement.
