HIGHER-ORDER SQUEEZING FOR THE QUANTIZED LIGHT-FIELD - KTH-POWER AMPLITUDE SQUEEZING

Kth-power amplitude squeezing (KPAS) is introduced and examined in the nonlinear-harmonic-oscillator model and the Jaynes-Cummings model wit h an intensity coupling. We discover that, in these two cases, the lon g-time behavior of KPAS (k less-than-or-equal-to 4) for the strong ini tial field periodically displays a collapse-revival-valley and squeeze d collapse-revival phenomenon, respectively. For a nonclassical state, the relation between KPAS and ordinary squeezing, Hong-Mandel squeezi ng, and antibunching is investigated. The results show that KPAS is an other intrinsic and independent nonclassical effect inequivalent to th e last three.
