Generation of even and odd nonlinear coherent states

S. Sivakumar

Published Jan 1, 1999• 20 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

We show that a class of even and odd nonlinear coherent states, defined as the eigenstates of product of a nonlinear function of the number operator and the square of the boson annihilation operator, can be generated in the center-of-mass motion of a trapped and bichromatically laser-driven ion. The nonclasscial properties of the states are studied.

Nonlinear coherent states

R. L. de Matos Filho, W. Vogel

We consider a class of nonlinear coherent states, which are right-hand eigenstates of the product of the boson annihilation operator and a nonlinear function of the number operator. Such states may appear as stationary states of the center-of-mass motion of a trapped and bichromatically laser-driven ion far from the Lamb-Dicke regime. Besides coherence properties, they exhibit nonclassical features such as amplitude squeezing and self-splitting, which is accompanied by pronounced quantum interference effects. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

Studies on nonlinear coherent states

S. Sivakumar

Nonclassical states of light are of fundamental importance in quantum optics. The properties of these states are due to the quantal nature of the electromagnetic field. In recent years there have been many experimental demonstrations of the realizability of nonclassical states in various physical schemes such as resonance fluorescence, four-wave mixing, centre-of-mass motion of a trapped ion and manipulation of field in a cavity. It is of interest to introduce new classes of nonclassical states and investigate their properties. In this context, generalization of the concept of coherent states (CSs) has played a major role. New concepts such as the nonlinear coherent states (NCSs) and interference in phase space have emerged from such studies. In this tutorial review we are concerned with the construction of new classes of nonclassical states by generalizing the notion of CSs. Our investigations on the photon-added coherent states (PACSs) indicate that these states can be interpreted as NCSs. Also, we introduce a new class of nonclassical states related to the PACSs. Having introduced a realizable example of NCSs, we extend the notion of even and odd CSs to the case of NCSs by introducing even and odd NCSs. With this new definition we interrelate some of the well known states of light. We suggest a scheme to generate a class of even and odd NCSs in the centre-of-mass motion of a trapped, laser-cooled, two-level ion.

Generation of nonlinear motional trio coherent states and their nonclassical properties

Seyedeh Robabeh Miry, Mohammad Kazem Tavassoly

Using the nonlinear coherent states approach, a general formalism for the construction of various classes of nonlinear trio coherent states in the context of multi-mode quantum states has been proposed. In particular, taking into account the most popular nonlinearity function associated with f -deformed coherent states, i.e. the nonlinearity function of the centre-of-mass motion of a trapped ion, it is illustrated that the corresponding trio coherent state possesses some interesting nonclassical properties. To establish this observation, sub-Poissonian statistics, three-mode squeezing, the behaviour of Vogel's characteristic function and the existence of entanglement are investigated. Due to the intrinsic non-classicality nature of the considered three-mode states, their physical production may be of high interest in the quantum optics field. Thus, we have finally demonstrated how nonlinear motional trio coherent states can be generated in three-dimensional anisotropic traps, appropriately.

Even and Odd Coherent States of the Motion of a Trapped Ion

R. L. de Matos Filho, W. Vogel

We propose a scheme for generating even and odd coherent states of the motion of a trapped ion via laser excitation of two vibronic transitions. These quantum superposition states emerge from the long-time dynamics, when the ion decouples from the laser fields and remains in a pure state given by the product of the electronic ground state with a quantum superposition of coherent states of the vibrational motion.

On the generalized intelligent states and certain related nonclassical states of a quantum exactly solvable nonlinear oscillator

V. Chithiika Ruby, Murugaian Senthilvelan

We construct nonlinear coherent states or f -deformed coherent states for a nonpolynomial nonlinear oscillator which can be considered as placed in the middle between the harmonic oscillator and the isotonic oscillator (Cariñena et al 2008 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 41 085301 ). The deformed annihilation and creation operators which are required to construct the nonlinear coherent states in the number basis are obtained from the solution of the Schrödinger equation. Using these operators, we construct generalized intelligent states, nonlinear coherent states, Gazeau–Klauder coherent states and the even and odd nonlinear coherent states for this newly solvable system. We also report certain nonclassical properties exhibited by these nonlinear coherent states. In addition to the above, we consider the position-dependent mass Schrödinger equation associated with this solvable nonlinear oscillator and construct nonlinear coherent states, Gazeau–Klauder coherent states and the even and odd nonlinear coherent states for it. We also give explicit expressions of all these nonlinear coherent states by considering a mass profile which is often used for studying transport properties in semiconductors.
