Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a Hamiltonian model describing the interaction of two photons with two two-level atoms and a degenerate parametric amplifier. In the near-resonance case, we obtain an analytic solution of the evolution equation for the wave function in the Schr¨odinger picture and use the obtained result for discussing the atomic inversion, the purity, and the phenomenon of squeezing. We show that the phenomenon of superstructure appears in the atomic inversion in the presence of detuning (with parameter Δ) and coupling (with parameter λ3). Our study of the purity shows that the system is always in a mixed state, and the maximum value of entanglement occurs around ~0.6. Also we show that detuning leads to a reduction in the value of squeezing for all quadrature variances. In contrast, the coupling parameter leads to an increase in the value of squeezing. However, for the usual single-mode squeezing (of quadratures) the effect of detuning consists in increase in the squeezing period.
