Study of higher order non-classical properties of squeezed Kerr state

Recently, Prakash and Mishra [J. Phys. B: at. Mol. Opt. Phys., 39, 2291(2006); 40, 2531(2007)] have studied higher order sub-Poissonian photon statistic conditions for non-classicality in the form of general inequalities for expectation values of products of arbitrary powers of photon number and of photon-number fluctuation. It is, therefore, vital to study the generation of these higher order sub-Poissonian photon statistics (phase-insensitive behavior) in a physically realizable medium and their relations to higher order squeezing (phase-sensitive behavior). In the present paper, we study higher order non-classical properties, such as Hong and Mandel squeezing, amplitude-squared squeezing and higher order sub-Poissonian photon statistics, of squeezed Kerr state which is generated by squeezing the output of a Kerr medium whose input is coherent light. Such states can be realized if laser light is sent through an optical fiber and then into a degenerate parametric amplifier. It is established that the squeezed Kerr state can exhibit higher order non-classical properties.     

Sub-Poissonian radiation of a one-atom two-level laser with incoherent pumping

The quantum statistical properties of the radiation of a one-atom two-level laser with incoherent pumping are analyzed. Solution of the Liouville equation for the density operator in the basis of Fock states shows that stationary radiation from a single-mode laser with incoherent pumping can be in a squeezed (sub-Poissonian) stationary state if the rate of spontaneous decay is lower than the rate of cavity losses and the pump rate. Inside the cavity the Fano factor reaches F=0.85 (15% squeezing). Multiple squeezing (F=0.19) is possible in the transient lasing regime. Significant squeezing obtains at the cavity output; the spectral Fano factor at zero frequency is 0.36 under optimal conditions. Zh. éksp. Teor. Fiz. 115, 1210–1220 (April 1999)     

Superposed graphene coherent states

Using an annihilation operator, coherent states related to the electron of graphene layer placed in a magnetic field, can be obtained. In this paper, we define even and odd superposed graphene coherent states and then, we consider their entanglement, squeezing and statistical properties. To study the entanglement, we use concurrence. The results show that odd superposed graphene coherent states are maximally entangled states for all values of coherence parameter. However, the entanglement of graphene coherent states and also even superposed depend on the coherence parameter. In addition, examining the Mandel parameter shows sub-Poissonian statistics for graphene coherent states and their odd superposition; while, even superposed states do not show sub-Poissonian statistics at all. Also, we find that graphene coherent states and even superposition may be squeezed while the odd states do not show squeezing.     

Quantum Statistical Properties of the Exciton in a Leaky Quasi-Mode Cavity

We have studied quantum statistical properties of the exciton in a leaky quasi-mode cavity. It is shown that when the exciton is initially in a squeezed coherent state whereas cavity initially in a vacuum state, there is energy exchange between the exciton and cavity. Both the exciton and cavity may exhibit sub-Poissonian distribution and exist quadrature squeezing. Calculation shows that correlation between the exciton and cavity is classical, which implies that there is not the violation of the Cauchy-Schwartz inequality.     

Fluctuations and correlations of soft gluons at the nonperturbative stage of evolution of QCD jets

At the nonperturbative stage of jet evolution, fluctuations of soft gluons are less than those for coherent states under specific conditions. This fact suggests that there can arise squeezed gluon states. The angular and rapidity dependences of the gluon correlation function are investigated at this stage of jet evolution. It is shown that these new states of soft gluons can display sub-Poissonian or super-Poissonian statistics corresponding to, respectively, antibunching and bunching of gluons, by analogy with squeezed photon states.     

Nonclassical Properties of Multiple-Photon-Added Two-Mode Squeezed Coherent States

We investigate how the photon addition operation affects the nonclassical properties of the non-Gaussian squeezed state generated by adding photons to each mode of the two-mode squeezed coherent state (TMSCS). By the generating function of two-variable Hermite polynomials, the compact expression of normalization factor is derived. We show that the fields in such states exhibit remarkable sub-Poissonian photon statistics. The photon addition operation can enhance the cross-correlation for appropriate combinations of several parameters involved in the TMSCS. Compared with that of TMSCS, the Wigner function of the photon–added TMSCS (PA-TMSCS) is modulated by a factor which is also related with two-variable Hermite polynomials. Such Wigner functions have some negativity regions and show a strong quantum mechanical interference. In addition, the normalization factor, Mandel’s Q parameter, cross-correlation function and Wigner functions are all sensitive to the compound phase involved in TMSCS.

An Alternative Approach to Jaynes-Cummings Model with Dissipation at Finite Temperature

An alternative approach to the Jaynes-Cummings model (JCM) with dissipation at a finite environmental temperature is presented in terms of a new master equation under Born-Markovian approximation. An analytic solution of the dissipation JCM is obtained. A variety ofphysical quantities of interest are calculated analytically. Dynamical properties of the atom and the field are investigated in some detail. It is shown that both cavity damping and environmental temperature strongly affect nonclassical effects in JCM, such as collapse and revivals of the atomic inversion, oscillations of the photon-number distribution, quadrature squeezing of the field and sub-Poissonian photon statistics.     

Non-classical Properties of Photon-Added Compass State

We investigate the observable non-classical features of the photon-added compass state (PACS) by its sub-Poissonian statistics, such as the Mandel’s parameter, second-order correlation function, photon-number distribution and the quasi-probability distribution functions, peculiarly the negativity in the Wigner distribution of the PACS as the specific non-classical features. We study the squeezing properties of the PACS and find the PACS does not show squeezing properties of the quadrature. Finally, we give the non-Gaussianity of the PACS by the fidelity between the PACS and the squeezed coherent state (SCS).     

Reduced quantum fluctuation in mesoscopic Josephson junction with nonclassical radiation field at finite temperature

We have investigated the reduced fluctuation properties in a mesoscopic Josephson junction with the squeezed state at a finite temperature. It is shown that the fluctuations increase with increasing temperature and the mesoscopic Josephson junction subsystem can exhibit squeezing behaviour at an appropriately low temperature.     

Deformed photon-added entangled squeezed vacuum and one-photon states: Entanglement,polarization, and nonclassical properties

In this paper, after a brief review on the entangled squeezed states, we produce a new class of the continuous-variabletype entangled states, namely, deformed photon-added entangled squeezed states. These states are obtained via the iterated action of the f-deformed creation operator A = f(n)aon the entangled squeezed states. In the continuation, by studying the criteria such as the degree of entanglement, quantum polarization as well as sub-Poissonian photon statistics, the twomode correlation function, one-mode and two-mode squeezing, we investigate the nonclassical behaviors of the introduced states in detail by choosing a particular f-deformation function. It is revealed that the above-mentioned physical properties can be affected and so may be tuned by justifying the excitation number, after choosing a nonlinearity function. Finally, to generate the introduced states, we propose a theoretical scheme using the nonlinear Jaynes–Cummings model.     

Some properties and applications of biphoton states of three-mode light

Statistical properties, generation, and applications of three-mode biphoton fields with no more than one photon in each mode are discussed. Such field states have sub-Poissonian photon statistics and can be squeezed and entangled. The modes that simultaneously exhibit these properties in measurements are indicated. Two setups for generating such states via spontaneous parametric down-conversion are described. It is shown that the field states discussed in this study provide a quantum channel for teleportation, dense coding, and quantum key distribution.     

Phase-sensitive nonclassical properties of photon-added-then-subtracted coherent squeezed states

We investigate the nonclassical properties of the photon-added-then-subtracted coherent squeezed state(PASCSS) via the sub-Poissonian statistics,the photon-number distribution,and the negativity of the Wigner function.It is found that the PASSCS is a superposition state of D(β)S(ζ)|0>,D(β)S(ζ)|1>,and D(β)S(ζ)|2>.We find that the Mandel Q parameter,the photon-number distribution,and the negative volume of the Wigner function of the PASCSS are all periodic functions of the compound φ-θ/2 with a period π involved with squeezing and displacement parameters.     

On the theory of layered high-temperature superconductors: Finite temperature properties

We extend the study of a model for layered high-temperature superconductors to finite temperatures. The model assumes Fermi liquid properties for the carriers, which form a narrow tight-binding band. The carriers are subject to on-site intralayer and nearest neighbor interlayer interactions. The previous studies of the zero temperature properties, revealing remarkable agreement with experimental data, are extended to finite temperatures. These properties include the tunneling conductance for diffuse and specular transmission in a normal isolator superconductor junction, specific heat, nuclear spin relaxation time and the London penetration depth. Our results are compared with experimental findings.     

Nonclassicality and decoherence of two-mode photon-added squeezed vacuum

We investigate the nonclassicality of two-mode photon-added squeezed vacuum state (TPASV) and its decoherence in a thermal environment according to the sub-Poissonian statistics and the negative region of Wigner function (WF). Based on the fact that the TPASV can be seen as a squeezed Hermite polynomial excitation state, we further obtain a compact expression for the normalization factor of TPASV, i.e., a Jacobi polynomial of the squeezing parameter. We also derive the explicit expression of WF of TPASV and then the decoherence effect on this state is also discussed by deriving the time evolution of the WF and its negative region.     

Statistical Properties of Photon-Added Two-Mode Squeezed Coherent States

The nonclassical and non-Gaussian quantum states—photon-added two-mode squeezed coherent states have been theoretically introduced by adding multiple photons to each mode of the two-mode squeezed coherent states. Starting from the new expression of two-mode squeezing operator in entangled states representation, the normalization factor is obtained, which is directly related to bivariate Hermite polynomials. The sub-Poissonian photon statistics, cross-correlation between two modes, partial negative Wigner function are observed, which fully reflect the nonclassicality of the target states. The negative Wigner function often display non-Gaussian distribution meanwhile. The investigations may provide experimentalists with some better references in quantum engineering.     

Nonclassicality and Entanglement of Photon-Subtracted Two-Mode Squeezed Coherent States Studied via Entangled-States Representation

We theoretically introduce a kind of non-Gaussian entangled states, i.e., photon-subtracted two-mode squeezed coherent states (PSTMSCS), by successively subtracting photons from each mode of the two-mode squeezed coherent states. The normalization factor which is related to bivariate Hermite polynomials is obtained by virtue of the two-mode squeezing operator in entangled-states representation. The sub-Poissonian photon statistics, antibunching effects, and partial negative Wigner function, respectively, are observed numerically, which fully reflect the nonclassicality of the resultant states. Finally, employing the SV criteria and the EPR correlation, respectively, the entangled property of PSTMSCS is analyzed. It is shown that the photon subtraction operation can effectively enhance the inseparability between the two modes.     

From squeezed atom lasers to teleportation of massive articles

The development of the Raman atom laser promises to make available new techniques for accessing and manipulating the quantum statistical properties of Bose-Einstein condensates. In this work we show how, combined with the already existing methods for the manipulation of quantum states of light which are central to quantum optics, the Raman input-output coupling mechanisms potentially enable the production of quadrature squeezed and sub-Poissonian atomic beams, and entanglement between atomic and optical fields. We also propose a method of measuring the quantum statistics of the atomic beam by transferring them to an optical field. Finally, by combning these techniques, we propose a method of teleporting the atom laser beam from one trapped condensate to another.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">f</Emphasis>-Deformed Boson Algebra Related to Gentile Statistics

In this paper the deformed boson algebra giving the Gentile distribution function is constructed by using the model of ideal gas of deformed bosons and some properties of a root of unity. As an example we discuss the quantum optical problem related to the Gentile (or f-deformed) boson algebra with large but finite M. For this algebra we construct the Gentile (or f-deformed) coherent state and discuss its nonclassical properties such as sub-Poissonian statistics and anti-bunching effect.     

Finite temperature field theory and quantum noise in inductively coupled LRC circuits

Finite temperature (0 ⩽ T < ∞) field (FTF) theory with an effective spectral lagrangian density formulation is used to study quantum noise in inductively coupled LRC circuits. Analytical solutions and numerical results for the finite second moments at temperature T which satisfy the uncertainty principle bound are given. From the numerical results, one can see the presence of a squeezed quantum state which depends upon the strength of the mutual inductance between the coupled circuits.
