Photon Statistics of Generic Two-Mode Squeezed Coherent Light

  • Published:
Journal of Russian Laser Research Aims and scope

Abstract

for two-mode squeezed coherent states, the photon distribution function is expressed in terms of both four-variable and two-variable Hermite polynomials depending on two squeezing parameters, the relative phase between the two oscillators, their “spatial” orientation, and a four-dimensional shift in phase space of the electromagnetic field oscillator. The oscillations of the photon distribution function are discussed. The Wigner function and Q-function of the generic two-mode squeezed vacuum and squeezed coherent state are calculated explicitly.
