The invariant-related unitary transformation method is used to study the exchange of nonclassical properties between two interacting modes of light. With the aid of numerical computation, it is of interest to find that the mutual conversion of the Fock state and the coherent state is attained when the interaction is chosen appropriately.PACS Nos.: 03.65.Ge, 42.50.Ar

We theoretically generate a kind of photon-catalyzed optical coherent states (PCOCSs) by heralded interference between any photons and coherent state via a non-degenerate parametric amplifier, which is also just a Laguerre polynomial excited coherent state. Based on obtaining the probability of successfully detecting them (also the normalization factor), the nonclassical properties of the PCOCSs are analytically investigated according to autocorrelation function, quadrature squeezing, and the negativity of the Wigner function. It is found that the nonclassicality depends on the amplitude of the coherent state, the catalysis photon number, and amplifier parameter. The negative volume of their Wigner function can be enlarged by increasing the catalysis photon number. These parameters may be effectively used to improve and enhance the nonclassical characteristics.

A laser field may be idealized as a coherent state, but it is often more convenient to use Fock states fQr quantum electrodynamical calculations. A Fock state implies fluctuations in the field intensity, aptl a constant field intensity (coherent state) implies fluctuations in the photon number. Both these effects are discussed rigorously. When the average photon number tends to infinity, these different states become asymptotically indistinguishable.

A new kind of charge coherent state called a Zp-graded charge coherent state is constructed by using the complex solution of the equation qp = 1. The p-1 charge operators are also explicitly constructed. We explicitly investigate some nonclassical properties for the Z3-graded charge coherent state.

In this paper, we introduce two classes of superposed states generated by a superposition of two single-mode para-Bose coherent states (CS) with arbitrary relative phase factors. The first class is superposition of two opposite para-Bose CS and second class consists of two para-Bose CS, [Formula: see text] out of phase with each other. These states are reduced to the well-known superposed single-mode CS of the simple harmonic oscillator when the deformation parameter tends to one. We study the nonclassical properties of the introduced states by evaluating their para-Bose Fock state distribution, second-order squeezing, Klyshko’s and Mandel’s parameters. We investigate the essential role of coherent and deformation parameters on their nonclassicality. We show that some nonclassical properties of these states are different from those of the even and odd coherent states. Finally, we present a simple scheme for the physical generation of the introduced states.

We introduce a class of the photon-added Bell-type entangled coherent states (PABECSs) obtained from Bell-type entangled coherent states by applying creation operators. We investigate their entanglement characteristics by analyzing the entropy of entanglement and discuss the influence of photon excitations on quantum entanglement. It is shown that applying a creation operator can increase the amount of entanglement. We also study the statistical properties of such states by discussing the behavior of the quasi-probability functions graphically. In addition, a possible scheme is presented to produce the PABECSs by using cavity quantum electrodynamics and quantum measurements.

Signal-to-quantum noise ratio for quantum current in mesoscopic Josephson junction of a circular superconducting ring can be improved if the electromagnetic field is in a successive squeezed coherent state. The mesoscopic Josephson junctions can feel the difference between the successive squeezed coherent states and other types of squeezed coherent states because their current–voltage Shapiro steps are different. We compare our method with another procedure for superposition of two squeezed coherent states (a squeezed even coherent state) and consider the effect of different large inductances on the supercurrent.

We consider a bipartite continuous variables quantum mixture coming from phase randomization of a pair-coherent state. We study the nonclassical properties of such a mixture. In particular, we quantify its degree of entanglement, then we show possible violations of Bell's inequalities. We also consider the use of this mixture in quantum teleportation. Finally, we compare this mixture with that obtained from a pair-coherent state by single photon loss.
