Abstract
In recent years it has been shown that atomic coherence or interference of pathways can be established through incoherent processes. We have investigated the generation of optical bistability via interference of incoherent pump processes, which is a new incoherent method leading to atomic coherence. The standard model of optical bistability with an atomic sample is considered.
