In this Letter, we experimentally demonstrate that in a single-atom maser based on a transmon strongly coupled to two resonators, it is possible to pump over a dozen photons into the system. The first high-quality resonator plays the role of a usual lasing cavity, and the second one presents a controlled dissipation channel, bolstering population inversion, and modifies the energy-level structure to lift the blockade. As confirmation of the lasing action, we observe conventional laser features such as a narrowing of the emission linewidth and external signal amplification. Additionally, we report unique single-atom features: self-quenching and several lasing thresholds."}],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2209.05165","open_access":"1"}],"department":[{"_id":"JoFi"}],"issue":"3","publication_status":"published","date_published":"2023-03-22T00:00:00Z"}
