Abstract

In this paper we have studied the statistical and squeezing properties of the cavity light generated by a three-level laser. Applying the solutions of the equations of evolution for the expectation values of the atomic operators and the quantum Langevin equations for the cavity mode operators, we have calculated the mean and variance of the photon number as well as the quadrature squeezing for the cavity light. In addition, we have observed that the two-mode cavity light is in a squeezed state and the squeezing occurs in the minus quadrature. The maximum quadrature squeezing of the light generated by the laser, operating far below threshold, is found to be \(37.5\%\) below the vacuum-state level. In addition, our result indicates that the quadrature squeezing is greater for \(\gamma =0\) than that for \(\gamma =0.4\) for 0.01 \(<r_{a}<\) 0.35 and is smaller for \(\gamma =0\) than that for \(\gamma =0.4\) for 0.35 \(<r_{a}<\) 1. We have also noted that the local quadrature squeezing approaches the global quadrature squeezing as the frequency interval increases.
