Amplitude-squared squeezing of the electromagnetic field is obtained in the Jaynes-Cummings model of an atomic transition coupled to a single-mode quantised electromagnetic field.
Amplitude-squared squeezing is investigated for the two-photon Jaynes-Cummings model with the field initially in a squeezed vacuum or a more general squeezed state. For small values of the coherence parameter and large values of the squeeze parameter, the amplitude-squared variances show threefold oscillatory behavior on the long time scale. It is found that a ground-state atom (as against an excited one) leads to considerable enhancement of the input amplitude-squared squeezing. The behavior of photon number squared and its relationship to the amplitude-squared squeezing is commented upon.
Amplitude-squared (AS) squeezing has been investigated for the m-photon Jaynes-Cummings model assuming the field to be initially in the squeezed states. The role played by intensity-dependent coupling has also been discussed. It has been shown that for the large initial average photon number [Formula: see text] with odd values of m, AS squeezing revokes permanently whereas with even values it recurs periodically. As m increases the revocation is hastened and the duration of occurrence decreases. Higher values of m for the initial field in a squeezed vacuum state can make one of the quadrature permanently squeezed. The AS squeezing behavior for two initial states of the atom, i.e., ground state versus excited state is also compared.
