Hypergeometric states and their nonclassical properties

Hong‐Chen Fu, Ryu Sasaki B

Published May 1, 1997• 22 citations

Abstract

“Hypergeometric states,” which are a one-parameter generalization of binomial states of the single-mode quantized radiation field, are introduced and their nonclassical properties are investigated. Their limits to the binomial states and to the coherent and number states are studied. The ladder operator formulation of the hypergeometric states is found and the algebra involved turns out to be a one-parameter deformation of su(2) algebra. These states exhibit highly nonclassical properties, like sub-Poissonian character, antibunching, and squeezing effects. The quasiprobability distributions in phase space, namely the Q and the Wigner functions are studied in detail. These remarkable properties seem to suggest that the hypergeometric states deserve further attention from theoretical and applicational sides of quantum optics.

Non-classical properties and algebraic characteristics of negative binomial states in quantized radiation fields

Wang, X G, Pan, S H, Yang Guo Zhen

We study the non-classical properties and algebraic characteristics of the negative binomial states introduced by Barnett recently. The ladder operator formalism and displacement operator formalism of the negative binomial states are found and the algebra involved turns out to be the SU(1,1) Lie algebra via the generalized Holstein-Primarkoff realization. These states are essentially Peremolov's SU(1,1) coherent states. We reveal their connection with the geometric states and find that they are excited geometric states. As intermediate states, they interpolate between the number states and geometric states. We also point out that they can be recognized as the nonlinear coherent states. Their non-classical properties, such as sub-Poissonian distribution and squeezing effect are discussed. The quasiprobability distributions in phase space, namely the Q and Wigner functions, are studied in detail.

Algebraic structure and nonclassical properties of the negative hypergeometric state

Nai-Le Liu

A new class of the intermediate state of the quantized radiation field, i.e. the negative hypergeometric state (NHGS), is introduced and its algebraic structure and nonclassical properties are investigated. The importance of NHGS lies in the fact that it can help unify such important states as the binomial, negative binomial, coherent, number and quasi-thermal states etc in quantum optics.

Statistical and phase properties of the binomial states of the electromagnetic field

A. Vidiella-Barranco, José Antonio Roversi

We investigate the nonclassical properties of the single-mode binomial states of the quantized electromagnetic field. We concentrate our analysis on the fact that the binomial states interpolate between the coherent states and the number states, depending on the values of the parameters involved. We discuss their statistical properties, such as squeezing (second and fourth order) and sub-Poissonian character. We show how the transition between those two fundamentally different states occurs, employing quasiprobability distributions in phase space, and we provide, at the same time, an interesting picture for the origin of second-order quadrature squeezing. We also discuss the phase properties of the binomial states using the Hermitian-phase-operator formalism.

Polya States of Quantized Radiation Fields, their Algebraic Characterization and Nonclassical Properties

Hong‐Chen Fu

Polya states of single mode radiation field are proposed and their algebraic characterization and nonclassical properties are investigated. They degenerate to the binomial (atomic coherent) and negative binomial (Perelomov's su(1,1) coherent) states in two different limits and further to the number, the ordinary coherent and Susskind-Glogower phase states. The algebra involved turn out to be a two-parameter deformation of both su(2) and su(1,1). Nonclassical properties are investigated in detail.

Statistical Properties and Algebraic Characteristics of Quantum Superpositions of Negative Binomial States

WANGXiao-Guang, FUHong-Chen

We introduce new kinds of states of quantized radiation fields, which are the superpositions of negative binomial states. They exhibit remarkable nonclassical properties and reduce to Schrodinger cat states in a certain limit.The algebras involved in the even and odd negative binomial states turn out to be generally deformed oscillator algebras.It is found that the even and odd negative binomial states satisfy the same eigenvalue equation with the same eigenvalue and they can be viewed as two-photon nonlinear coherent states. Two methods of generating such the states are proposed.``
