Study of nonclassicality in fifth harmonic generation nonlinear optical process

Abstract

We have examined non classical effect i.e. higher order single mode antibunching and intermodel antibunching and higher order sub-poissonian photon statistics (HOSPS) in fifth harmonic generation non linear optical process using short time interaction technique.We have found that nonclassical effects directly depend on number of photons prior to interaction with non linear medium.The higher the number of photons present prior to an interaction, the higher will be the nonclassicality in the system.It is additionally found that stoke mode doesn't fulfill the condition of single mode antibunching and HOSPS in fifth harmonic generation process.To examine the optical nonlinearity of nanoparticles, there are significant research efforts concerning the estimation of higher order nonlinear susceptibility which can be utilized as a source for the generation of higher order harmonic generation nonlinear optical processes [19].

Pump photons present in a non-linear process as a witnesses of nonclassicality of a system

Priyanka Priyanka, Savita Gill

We have studied non-classical effects, i.e. higher order photon antibunching (HOA) and higher order sub-Poissonian photon number statistics (HOSPS) in various non-linear optical processes like second harmonic generation, fourth harmonic generation, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) and coherent anti-Stokes hyper-Raman scattering (CAHRS) using short time interaction techniques.The non-classical effects directly depend on number of photons prior to interaction with non-linear medium has already been studied but we have found that non-linear processes involving equal number of pump photons have same higher order photo antibunching (HOA) and higher order sub-Poissonian photon number statistics (HOSPS) independent of the non-linear process involved.KEYWORDS Higher order sub-Poissonian photon number statistics, higher order photon antibunching, optical processes.FOR CITATION Priyanka, Savita Gill Pump photons present in a non-linear process as a witnesses of nonclassicality of a system.

Generation of higher order non-classicality in pump mode in seven wave mixing nonlinear optical process

Priyanka Priyanka, Savita Gill

In seven wave mixing non-linear optical process having pump photons of dissimilar frequencies, higher order non classical properties were studied. It is shown that as we go into the higher order of the field amplitude and with an increase in the number of photons existing in the system before non-linear medium interaction, nonclassicality increases. In addition, we have also obtained higher order antibunching of photons that can be used as a criterion to obtain a single source of photons, which is the primary prerequisite for the quantum information processing.

Nonclassical Effects of Light in Fifth Harmonic Generation up to First-Order Hamiltonian Interaction

Rajendra Pratap, Dilip Kumar Giri, Ajay Prasad

The nonclassical effects of light in the fifth harmonic generation are investigated by quantum mechanically up to the first-order Hamiltonian interaction. The coupled Heisenberg equations of motion involving real and imaginary parts of the quadrature operators are established. The occurrence of amplitude squeezing effects in both quadratures of the radiation field in the fundamental mode is investigated and found to be dependent on the selective phase values of the field amplitude. The photon statistics in the fundamental mode have also been investigated and found to be sub-Poissonian in nature. It is observed that there is no possibility to produce squeezed light in the harmonic mode up to first-order Hamiltonian interaction. Further, we have found that the normal squeezing in the harmonic mode directly depends upon the fifth power of the field amplitude of the initial pump field up to second-order Hamiltonian interaction. This gives a method of converting higher-order squeezing in the fundamental mode into normal squeezing in the harmonic mode and vice versa. The analytic expression of fifth-order squeezing of the fundamental mode in the fifth harmonic generation is established.

Antibunching, Sub-Poissonian, and Correlation Functions of Photons in Seventh Harmonic Generation Process

The study investigates antibunching, sub-Poissonian statistics, and photon correlation functions in the pump and harmonic modes of the seventh harmonic generation process.We investigated various approaches to photon antibunching by solving the generalised interaction Hamiltonian in the Heisenberg picture using short-time approximation.It is inferred that the number of pump photons, coupling of the field strength, and interaction times significantly influence photon antibunching.It is observed that third-order antibunching in the pump mode has greater nonclassicality than second-and first-order antibunching.In the harmonic mode, the nonclassical effect is found to be less pronounced and becomes more evident as the interaction time decreases.The first-order Hamiltonian interaction induces a stronger nonclassical effect than the second-order interaction.The interaction of a coherent pump field with a nonzero harmonic field leads to photon clustering and bunching effects.Finally, photon antibunching appears most pronounced, indicating nonclassicality, as the second-order correlation function decreases.This confirms that antibunching is a fundamental quantum property of light.

Higher order antibunching and subpossonian photon statistics in five wave mixing process

Amit Verma, Anirban Pathak

We have investigated the possibility of observing higher order antibunching (HOA) and higher order subpossonian photon statistics (HOSPS) in five wave mixing and third harmonic generation process. It had been shown that both processes satisfy the criteria of HOA and HOSPS. Further, some observations on the nature of interaction which produces HOA and HOSPS are reported.

Quantum-optical description of photon statistics and cross correlations in high-order harmonic generation

Ákos Gombkötő, Péter Földi, Sándor Varró

We present a study of photon statistics associated with high-order harmonic generation (HHG) involving one-mode and intermodal correlations of the high harmonic photons. The aim of the paper is to give insight into the nonclassical properties of high-order harmonic modes. To this end, we use a simplified model describing an elementary quantum emitter: the model of a two-level atom. While the material system is extremely simplified in this description, the conclusions and the methods may be generalized for more complex cases. Our primary interest is an effective model of HHG in which the exciting pulse is classical and the harmonics are quantized, although we touch upon the more generalized, fully quantized model as well. Evolution of the Mandel parameter, photon antibunching, squeezing, and cross correlations are calculated. Results imply that with respect to a single quantized emitter, nonclassicality of the harmonics is present: sub-Poissonian photon statistic and squeezing can characterize certain optical modes, while strong anticorrelation can also be present.
