SQUEEZING AND OTHER NON-CLASSICAL FEATURES IN k-PHOTON ANHARMONIC OSCILLATOR IN BINOMIAL AND NEGATIVE BINOMIAL STATES OF THE FIELD

Abstract

A systematic study of squeezing obtained from k-photon anharmonic oscillator (with interaction hamiltonian of the form (a†)kak, k ≥ 2) interacting with light whose statistics can be varied from sub-Poissonian to poissonian via binomial state of field and super-Poissonian to poissonian via negative binomial state of field is presented. We predict that for all values of k there is a tendency increase in squeezing with increased sub-Poissonian character of the field while the reverse is true with super-Poissonian field. We also present non-classical behavior of the first order coherence function explicitly for k = 2 case (i.e., for two-photon anharmonic oscillator model used for a Kerr-like medium) with variation in the statistics of the input light.

Interaction of squeezed light with a Kerr medium

Arup Banerjee

The author considers interaction of squeezed light with a non-linear Kerr medium modelled as an anharmonic oscillator. Evolution of quantum fluctuations in the field amplitude and the first-order coherence function have been studied for both the sub-Poissonian and super-Poissonian statistics. Further, the author has also investigated the effect of the squeezing parameter of the initial state. The results for the first-order coherence function are obtained analytically.

Statistical properties of squeezed Kerr states

Christopher C. Gerry, R. Grobe

We study the statistical properties of squeezed Kerr states generated by squeezing, with a two-photon parametric process, the output of a Kerr medium whose input is coherent light. The squeezing has the effect of allowing the photon statistics to depend on the Kerr nonlinearity. Without the squeezing the statistics are Poissonian, but after squeezing they may be either sub-Poissonian or super-Poissonian. We also study the Q-function quasiprobability distribution for these states and related distributions associated with the quantum-mechanical phase. Finally, we show that quadrature squeezing can be enhanced and that squeezing and sub-Poissonian statistics can coexist.

Quantum Effects in the Interaction of an Anharmonic Oscillator with Binomial and Squeezed Coherent Fields

Amitabh Joshi, Ravinder Rupchand Puri

We show that a single mode of an electromagnetic field in the binomial state or in the squeezed coherent state, propagating in a non-absorbing nonlinear medium modelled as an anharmonic oscillator, gives rise to interesting quantum effects such as collapses and revivals in the energy exchange between the field and the medium. Analytic expressions are obtained for the energy exchange variable. We have exploited the characteristics of the binomial state which provides a means of systematic study of the collapses and revivals with variation in the field statistics from Poissonian to sub-Poissonian. Effects of variation in initial squeezing in the field are also included.

GENERALIZED EXCITED NEGATIVE BINOMIAL STATES OF ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD AND SOME OF THEIR NON-CLASSICAL PROPERTIES

H. H. Salah, Mahmoud Darwish, A.‐S. F. Obada

New states of electromagnetic field, generalized excited negative binomial states are introduced here. These states interpolate between the superposition of two excited coherent states and number states. The non-classical properties for these states are discussed, such as, second order correlation function, squeezing phenomena [normal squeezing and amplitude squared squeezing], phase properties in Pegg–Barnett formalism and the quasi-probability distribution functions (Q-function and Wigner function).

Photon Statistics of Non-classical Fields

Vlasta Peřinová, J. Křepelka, Jan Peřina

The photon statistics of radiation of a damped harmonic oscillator with an initial squeezed state are investigated. It is shown that a generalized model of the superposition of coherent and chaotic fields involving possibly negative noise is appropriate in this case. The influence of quantum damping can easily be recognized in this process. A relationship between sub-Poissonian statistics and squeezing is thoroughly discussed. A degenerate parametric process is related to the investigated model.
