Published Apr 1, 1991• 44 citations

Abstract

Using the thermo-field dynamics notation, an elegant solution of the master equation for an attenuated or amplified nonlinear oscillator is presented. It is found that, in this notation, the solution of the master equation under consideration amounts to a simple modification of that for the linear oscillator.

Destruction of quantum coherence in a nonlinear oscillator via attenuation and amplification

D. J. Daniel, Gerard J Milburn

The exact solution to the master equation of a nonlinear oscillator, subject to damping or amplification, is presented. The effect of such incoherent processes on the quantum-coherence properties and recurrences is obtained. It is shown that amplification destroys quantum coherence more rapidly than does attenuation.

A two-fold generalization of results concerning the third-order nonlinear dissipative oscillator is presented. The exact solution to the master equation for an arbitrary initial state is given, and closed formulae for the squeeze variances in the case of initial Gaussian pure and mixed states are derived.
