Abstract
The effect of the phonon subsystem of a crystal on laser absorption is considered. The exciton- phonon interaction is shown to result in a nonlinear behavior of absorption as a function of exciton gas density. The output light intensity is calculated as a function of temperature and the temperature range in which optical bistability occurs is established.
