Abstract

The concept of nth-order amplitude squeezing is introduced in the fundamental mode in Raman process as a generalization of the higher-order squeezing under short-time approximation based on a fully quantum mechanical approach. The condition for occurrence of nth-order squeezing is obtained from which higher-order squeezing up to n = 5 are studied. The coupled Heisenberg equation of motion involving real and imaginary parts of the quadrature operators is established. Dependence of squeezing on photon number is also established.

nTH-ORDER AMPLITUDE SQUEEZING EFFECTS OF RADIATION IN MULTIPHOTON PROCESSES

Dilip Kumar Giri, Partha Sarathi Gupta

Squeezing of the electromagnetic field is a purely quantum mechanical phenomenon and this quantum effect is expected to manifest itself in optical processes in which the nonlinear response of the system to the radiation field plays an important role. It has generated a great deal of interest in view of the possibility of reducing the noise of an optical signal below the vacuum limit i.e. zero-point oscillations. In this paper the concept of nth-order amplitude squeezing is introduced in the fundamental mode in four- and six-wave mixing processes as a generalization of the higher-order squeezing under short-time approximation based on a fully quantum mechanical approach. It established the coupled Heisenberg equations of motion involving real and imaginary parts of the quadrature operators. The condition for occurrence of nth-order squeezing is obtained from which higher-order squeezing upto n=3 are studied. Dependence of squeezing on photon number is also established. The conditions for obtaining maximum and minimum squeezing are obtained. The method of present investigation can be applied to any higher-order non-linear optical processes and the technique can also be extended for studying squeezing in any N-photon process in general. Further, nth-order squeezing of radiation in N-photon process can also be investigated. The results obtained may help in selecting a suitable process to generate optimum squeezing in the radiation field.

Higher-order squeezing of the electromagnetic field in spontaneous and stimulated Raman processes

Dilip Kumar Giri, Partha Sarathi Gupta

The occurrence of fourth and fifth-order squeezing in the fundamental mode of the electromagnetic field in spontaneous and stimulated Raman processes under the short-time approximation is investigated on the basis of a fully quantum-mechanical approach. In an idealized model, the Raman process is looked upon as a two-photon on a one phonon interaction process. The coupled Heisenberg equations of motion involving real and imaginary parts of the quadrature operators are established. The dependence of fourth- and fifth-order squeezing in terms of the signal-to-noise ratio on the number of photons is investigated. We have also established the amplitude squeezing effects in the Stokes and vibrational modes, which is found to be dependent on higher-order difference squeezing showing a difference squeezing that can be converted to normal squeezing.

COMMENTS ON "NTH-ORDER SQUEEZING OF THE FIELD AMPLITUDE IN RAMAN PROCESS AS A GENERALIZATION OF THE HIGHER-ORDER SQUEEZING"

Biswajit Sen, Swapan Mandal

In a recent paper, Giri and Gupta [Int. J. Mod. Phys. B19, 1943 (2005)] discussed the possibility of obtaining nth-order squeezing of the field amplitude of the fundamental mode in spontaneous Raman processes. These investigations are based on the earlier works of Kumar and Gupta [Quantum & Semiclassical Opt.7, 835 (1995)] and Giri and Gupta [J. Mod. Opt.51, 1705 (2004)]. As a consequence of our re-investigation on the same model, we found that the calculations and hence the conclusion of Giri and Gupta [Int. J. Mod. Phys. B19, 1943 (2005) and J. Mod. Opt.51, 1705 (2004)] and Kumar and Gupta are entirely baseless and misleading. There will be no squeezing of the fundamental mode in stimulated and/or in spontaneous Raman processes.

THE AMPLITUDE SQUEEZING EFFECTS OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD IN SIX-WAVE INTERACTION MODEL

Dilip Kumar Giri, Partha Sarathi Gupta

The amplitude squeezing properties of the electromagnetic field is investigated in the fundamental, Stokes (probe) and signal mode in six-wave mixing process under short-time approximation based on a fully quantum mechanical approach. The interaction is looked upon as a process involving absorption of two pump photons and emission of three probe photons and one signal photon at different frequencies. The coupled Heisenberg quantum mechanical equations of motion involving real and imaginary parts of the quadrature operators are established and solved under short-time scale. The occurrence of amplitude squeezing effects in both the quadrature of the radiation field in the fundamental mode as well as in the Stokes (probe) mode is investigated using the required conditions of squeezing in each of the cases. It is also shown that the squeezing in the signal mode is found to be dependent on amplitude-squared squeezing of the initial pump field. This gives a method of converting higher-order (amplitude-squared) squeezing into normal squeezing.

Higher-order amplitude squeezing in hyper-Raman scattering under short-time approximation

Ashok Kumar, Partha Sarathi Gupta

The nonclassical effect of squeezing of light in hyper-Raman processes is investigated under the short-time approximation based on a fully quantum mechanical approach. Effects of squeezing in spontaneous and stimulated processes are studied. A hyper-Raman process is looked upon as a three-photon and one-phonon interaction process. Squeezing in amplitude, squared amplitude and cubed amplitude have been investigated. Squeezing occurs invariably in the fundamental mode in both spontaneous and stimulated processes, whereas the squeezing in the Stokes mode is found to be dependent on amplitude-squared squeezing of the initial pump field.

Short-time fourth-order squeezing effects in spontaneous and stimulated four- and six-wave mixing processes

Dilip Kumar Giri, Partha Sarathi Gupta

The concept of fourth-order squeezing of the electromagnetic field is investigated in the fundamental mode in spontaneous and stimulated four- and six-wave mixing processes under the short-time approximation based on a fully quantum mechanical approach. The coupled Heisenberg equations of motion involving real and imaginary parts of the quadrature operators are established. The possibility of obtaining fourth-order squeezing is studied. The dependence of fourth-order squeezing on the number of photons is also investigated. It is shown that fourth-order squeezing, which is a higher-order squeezing, allows a much larger fractional noise reduction than lower-order squeezing. It is shown that squeezing is greater in a stimulated process than the corresponding squeezing in spontaneous interaction. The conditions for obtaining maximum and minimum squeezing are obtained. We have also established the non-classical nature of squeezed radiation using the Glauber–Sudarshan representation.
