It is observed that the exhibits remarkable non-classical properties differing from those of and .

Non-classical properties of two-mode squeezed superposed coherent state

Liu Yu-jie, Huang Yan, Pang Shao-fang

A new class of non-classical state of the radiation field,called as two-mode squeezed superposed coherent state,is described in this paper.It is defined as ｜φ〉=CS(ξ)(｜α_1,α_2〉+e~(iφ)｜α~*_1,α~*_2〉).Calculating its normalized constant,its non-classical nature is discussed,including squeezed effect,sub-Poissonian distributing,anti-bunching effect,and the second-order cross correlation function between the two-mode.Numerical results demonstrate that the two-mode squeezed superposed coherent state possesses more obvious non-classical properties.Selecting suitable parameters α_1,α_2,φ,θandξ,the two-mode squeezed superposed coherent state can be reduced to the two-mode squeezed superposed vacuum state and the two-mode superposed coherent state.Therefore it is a kind of more generalized non-classical quantum state.

Excited even and odd coherent states of the radiation field

Zong-Zheng Xin, Yun-Bo Duan, Wei Zhang +3 more

Two new classes of nonclassical states are defined by exciting Hillery's even and odd coherent states. Their physical properties are investigated numerically. It is found that they do not exhibit the squeezing effect but exhibit remarkable characteristics of sub-Poissonian distribution and antibunching. In sharp contrast to the case of excited Glauber coherent states, it is observed that the uncertainty of the field quadrature in excited even and odd coherent states increases with the degree of excitation. It is also seen that the Wigner functions associated with them take negative values for wider regions of parameters compared to those of Hillery's even and odd coherent states.

The Mth nonlinear coherent states

S Majid Heydari, Akbar Jafari, O. Abbasi

Abstract Since radiation field states are very important in the interaction with the various atomic structures, in this article we introduce a new type of quantum states, which we call ‘Mth nonlinear coherent states’. We define these states based on acting of the number operator M times n ˆ M on a nonlinear coherent state. By analyzing the photon distribution function and its overlap with the nonlinear coherent states, it becomes clear that these states are very similar to the corresponding nonlinear coherent states. We also investigate the nonclassical features of such states for different values of M, and it is determined that the occurrence of sub-Poissonian photon statistics, normal squeezing, and amplitude squared squeezing are considerable nonclassical properties of the Mth nonlinear coherent states. Also, examining the Husimi function shows a local behavior for the introduced states. Furthermore, by calculating the Wigner function, we find out that in some points of the phase space, the value of this function is negative which could be considered as a nonclassical feature for these states.

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.
