Quantum Properties of Two-Mode Squeezed Even and Odd Coherent States

Abstract

Two new types of quantum states are constructed by applying the operator s (ξ) = exp (ξ* ab −ξ a † b † ) on the two-mode even and odd coherent states. The mathematical and quantum statistical properties of such states are investigated. Various nonclassical features of these states, such as squeezing properties, the inter-mode photon bunching, and the violation of Cauchy–Schwarz inequality, are discussed. The Wigner function in these states are studied in detail.

Correlated two-mode SU(1, 1) coherent states: nonclassical properties

Christopher C. Gerry

The properties of correlated two-mode SU(1, 1) coherent states are studied. These states are a generalization of the two-mode squeezed vacuum states and are generated by applying the two-mode squeeze operator to a state in which there are initially q photons in one mode, |q, 0〉, the squeezed vacuum (q = 0) obviously being a special case. For these states the photon-number distribution and the nonclassical properties of photon antibunching, enhanced phase fluctuations, violations of the Cauchy–Schwarz inequality, two-mode squeezing, and sum squeezing are studied. A Q-function quasi-probability distribution for these states is also presented.

Non-classical Properties of Even and Odd Coherent States

Christopher C. Gerry

We present a detailed discussion of even and odd coherent states defined as eigenstates of the single mode two-photon annihilation operator a 2. We study the non-classical properties such as squeezing, higher-order squeezing, and photon antibunching. Also discussed are the various quantum quasiprobability distributions, namely the P function, which is shown to be highly singular, the Q function, and the Wigner, which can take on negative values for these states. Finally, we present a discussion of a possible mechanism for the generation of such states based on the competition between parametric amplification and the incoherent losses from two-photon resonant absorption.

Properties of new even and odd nonlinear coherent states with different parameters

Cheng Zhang, Rui-Jiao Miao, Xiao-Qiu Qi

We construct a class of nonlinear coherent states (NLCSs) by introducing a more general nonlinear function and study their nonclassical properties, specifically the second-order correlation function [Formula: see text], Mandel parameter Q, squeezing, amplitude-squared squeezing and Wigner function of the optical field. The results indicate that the nonclassical properties of the new types of even and odd NLCSs crucially depend on the nonlinear functions. More concretely, we find that the new even NLCSs could exhibit the photon-bunching effect, whereas the new odd NLCSs could show the photon-antibunching effect. The degree of squeezing is also significantly affected by the parameter selection of these NLCSs. By employing various forms of nonlinear functions, it becomes possible to construct the NLCSs with diverse properties, thereby providing a theoretical foundation for the corresponding experimental investigations.

Nonclassical features of entangled coherent states

Muhammad Ashfaq Ahmad, Syed Hamad Bukhari, Salman Naeem Khan +3 more

Nonclassical features of entangled coherent states (two-mode superposition coherent states) based on two coherent states shifted in phase by π/2 are discussed. Analysis of Cauchy–Schwartz inequality, two-mode quadrature squeezing, oscillatory and sub-Poissonian photon statistics show that nonclassicality exists for these states. Furthermore, it is also observed that special states have remarkably strong nonclassical properties than the entangled coherent states based on famous even–odd coherent states.

Two-mode Squeezed Pair Coherent States

Christopher C. Gerry

The properties of states generated by the application of the two-mode squeeze operator to the pair coherent states are studied. These states are the two-mode analogues of the single-mode squeezed states generated by the application of the single-mode squeeze operator to an ordinary coherent state. In the present case there are correlations between the modes and strong non-classical properties are to be expected. We study the statistical properties of the photon number distributions, squeezing, violations of the Cauchy-Schwartz inequality, quasiprobability distributions and the phase distributions.
