Even and odd q-coherent states and their optical statistics properties
Fa-Bo Wang, Le‐Man Kuang
Abstract
The authors construct explicitly even and odd q-coherent states (qCSs), which are proved to form a representation of the quantum Heisenberg-Weyl algebra, and study their properties. It is shown that optical statistics properties of the even and odd qCSs are very different. They find that an even qCS exhibits squeezing but no antibunching effect and an odd qCS has antibunching effect but no squeezing for all finite-q values.
