Collapse of a two-mode squeezed state after registeringn-single mode photons

Abstract

By enquiring what happens to the remaining mode when one makes one-mode n-photon counting for the two-mode squeezed state, we show that the two-mode squeezed state will collapse to a counting operator in the remaining mode with a new smaller quantum efficiency of the detector. We also derive its P-representation.

Single-mode quadrature-amplitude measurement for generalized two-mode squeezed states studied by virtue of the entangled state representation

Xuefen Xu

The result of one-mode quadrature-amplitude measurement for some generalized two-mode squeezed states has been studied by virtue of the entangled state representation of the corresponding two-mode squeezing operators. We find that the remaining field-mode simultaneously collapses to the single-mode squeezed state with more stronger squeezing. The measurement result caused by a single-mode squeezed state projector is also calculated, which indicates quantum entanglement in squeezing.

Single-mode photon number measurement for the squeezed two-mode number state

Xuefen Xu, Zhu Shi-Qun

Based on the fact that a two-mode squeezed number state is a two-variable Hermite polynomial excitation of the two-mode squeezed vacuum state, the result of one-mode l -photon measurement for the two-mode squeezed number state S 2 | m , n ⟩ is discussed. It is found that a remaining field-mode simultaneously collapses into a number state | n – m + l ⟩ with the coefficient being a Jacobi polynomial of n , m and l , which manifestly exhibits the entanglement between the two modes, i.e. it depends on the number-difference between the two modes. The second mode collapses into an excited coherent state when the first mode is measured as a coherent state.

Calculation of the Quadrature-amplitude Measurement in the Two-mode Squeezed Vacuum State via the Entangled State Representation

Xuefen Xu

Based on the subject proposed in Ref.[4](Acta Sinica Quantum Optica V.8(2002) 47) this paper makes some new profound discussions.It calculates the result of the quadrature-amplitude measurement on the first-mode field of a two-mode squeezed vacuum state via the entangled state representation,and it is shown that the second-mode field collapses to a single-mode squeezed state,whose explicit form is derived.

A new quantum mechanical photon counting distribution formula

Hong-Yi Fan, Hong-Chun Yuan, Liyun Hu

By virtue of density operator's P-representation in the coherent state representation, we derive a new quantum mechanical photon counting distribution formula. As its application, we find the photon counting distribution for the pure squeezed state relates to the Legendre function, which seems a new result.

A new quantum mechanical photon counting distribution formula

Hong‐Chun Yuan, Hong-Yi Fan, Liyun Hu

By virtue of the density operator's P -representation in the coherent state representation, we derive a new quantum mechanical photon counting distribution formula. As its application, we calculate photon counting distributions for some given light fields. It is found that the pure squeezed state's photon counting distribution is related to the Legendre function, which is a new result.

Simple approach to the wave functions of one- and two-mode squeezed states

Fan Hong‐Yi, Jack Vanderlinde

With use of the coordinate representation of the one-mode squeeze operator, the coordinate representation wave function of the one-mode squeezed state is simply rederived. A parallel treatment for the two-mode squeeze operator yields the two-mode squeezed state wave function.
