Four three-mode correlated states are generated by two beam splitters. We show that, by means of parity measurement, those light fields exhibit the nonlocality represented by the violation of the Bell inequality. The conditions of the maximum violation are also studied.
We address the nonlocality of fully inseparable three-mode Gaussian states generated either by bilinear three-mode Hamiltonians or by a sequence of bilinear two-mode Hamiltonians. Two different tests revealing nonlocality are considered, in which the dichotomic Bell operator is represented by the displaced parity and by the pseudospin operator respectively. Three-mode states are also considered as a conditional source of two-mode non-Gaussian states, whose nonlocality properties are analysed. We found that the non-Gaussian character of the conditional states allows violation of Bell's inequalities (by parity and pseudospin tests) stronger than with a conventional twin-beam state. However, the non-Gaussian character is not sufficient to reveal nonlocality through a dichotomized quadrature measurement strategy.
Quantum nonlocality of the single-photon entangled state emerging from a beam splitter with arbitrary controlling parameters is investigated by means of the parity measurement. The condition of the maximal violation of the Bell-CHSH inequality is obtained for the single-photon entangled state. Under the condition of the small coherent intensity J ( J = 0.1) and the phase difference γ αβ of the two coherent displacements being opposite to the internal phase shift ϕ of the beam splitter (γ αβ = −ϕ), we find that the quantum nonlocality depends only on the reflection coefficient R of the beam splitter, while ϕ plays an important role for selecting γ αβ . The strongest quantum nonlocality can be observed for a 50:50 beam splitter. If R deviates from the intermediate value 0.5, the quantum nonlocality decreases gradually, even vanishes. Our results provide a method to observe and manipulate the quantum nonlocality of the single-photon entangled state by adjusting the parameters of the coherent displacements and the beam splitter.

We investigate the nonlocality of Schmidt-correlated (SC) states, and present analytical expressions of the maximum violation value of Bell inequalities. It is shown that the violation of Clauser—Horne—Shimony—Holt (CHSH) inequality is necessary and sufficient for the nonlocality of two-qubit SC states, whereas the violation of the Svetlichny inequality is only a sufficient condition for the genuine nonlocality of three-qubit SC states. Furthermore, the relations among the maximum violation values, concurrence, and relative entropy entanglement are discussed.
