Abstract

The two-photon Rabi model describes the interaction between a two-level system and a single bosonic mode via two-photon process. By means of mean-field approximation, we investigate the quantum phase transition, which corresponds to a jump from the single well to double well structure for the energy function in the ultra-strong coupling regime. Taking the classical limit for the atom (two-level system) partner, we also study the squeezing of the cavity field in both of the normal and super-radiance phases.
