Abstract
The characteristics of the k th-power squeezing of a class of superposition states which involving two orthonormalized eigenstates of photon annihilation operator aN are studied.The result show that the characteristics of the k th-power squeezing of a class of superposition states which involving two orthonormalized eigenstates of photon annihilation operator aN are different from the characteristics of the k th-power squeezing of the orthonormalized eigenstates of photon annihilation operator aN clearly.No matter what N is an odd number or even number,the superposition states own amplitude k(k=Nt or Nt/2) th-power squeezing,but for the orthonormalized eigenstates of aN,only when N is even number there exist amplitude k(k=(2P+1)N/2) th-power squeezing.Owing to that,when phase difference δ=2mπ/t(m is integer),the superposition states don′t own amplitude k th-power squeezing;when δ=π,only N and t are odd number simultaneously,the superposition states may own amplitude k th-power squeezing;when δ=π/2,t≠4m,the superposition states own amplitude k th-power squeezing;thus the phase difference of parameter has key effect on amplitude k th-power squeezing.
