The statistical properties of the higher-order squeezed thermal states can be improved by successive application of the squeeze operator. We compare our method with the usual procedure for higher-order squeezing.
By making use of thermo-field dynamics(TFD),higher-order fluctuations and higher-order squeezing of quadrature components for coherent states and squeezed states with thermal noise have been studied.The higher-order fluctuations of the phase for these thermalized states have been investigated using the concept of measured phase operators.Thus the dependence of the lower-and higher-order fluctuations and squeezing on temperature in these states at finite temperature can be seen.It is significant to discuss the effect of temperature on the fluctuations and squeezing,since the states of real field are always at finite temperatures.
