Abstract
A quantitative measure of nonclassical behaviour, introduced by Lee (Phys. Rev. A 44 (1991) R2775), is employed to investigate the nonclassical depth of the Pegg-Barnett phase state. We also establish a connection between the Lee and Cahill-Glauber methods, and discuss the link with quantum tomograp hy. (C) 2001 published by Elsevier Science B.V.
