Recent experiments demonstrated the possibility to realize a single-qubit maser, by coupling an electrical resonator to a superconducting qubit. In the present paper we extend earlier work on single-atom lasers to account for the strong qubit–resonator coupling. We focus in particular on the spectral properties of the lasing radiation and we discuss phase locking induced by an additional ac driving of the resonator.
