Abstract
We have measured the intensity correlation of pulsed squeezed light ge nerated by a degenerate optical parametric amplifier seeding weak cohe rent input signal. When the signal was deamplified, the correlation sh owed antibunching and the probability distribution of the photon numbe r was sub-Poissonian, both of these being nonclassical properties of l ight.
